WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats pushed their election-year economic package to Senate passage Sunday, a hard-fought compromise less ambitious than President Joe Biden’s original domestic vision but one that still meets deep-rooted party goals of slowing global warming, moderating pharmaceutical costs and taxing immense corporations.
Nonpartisan analysts have said the 755-page “Inflation Reduction Act” would have a minor effect on surging consumer prices.

Trump said at CPAC he will aggressively campaign against Manchin for doing this to the people of West Virginia.
755 pages isn’t reducing anything.
250 economists informed Congress that their monstrosity of a bill will increase inflation. Our Dem Congress doesn't care!!!# The sheeple will believe whatever our Dem controlled media tells them. Conservatives will need to take back Congress, courts, education & legacy media - if there's to be lasting America 1st change. Much work to be done!
Watching the Democrats and the media is akin to watching stage four cancer in action. Now you know why they stole just enough seats to keep their majorities.
Perhaps
But having VP Suck Machine cast the deciding vote at 51-50, is hardly a win to boast about
They did
All the rats have to do is rev up the vote cheating machine and they won’t pay any price at all.
I’m surprised the usual fake Repubs didn’t join in.
Election year, don'cha know. That said Mitch would have given them the needed votes, if it came down to it.
“A huge loss for the United States.”
You took the words right out of my mouth. What a disaster for all of us and the country.
How can pouring gasoline in the raging inflation inferno in any way be considered a victory?
It will backfire and plunge us into an actual depression.
“A Pyrrhic victory”
So taxing and spending during historic inflation. What could possibly go wrong?
We’re entering economic calamity unlike anything few have seen in their lifetimes.
Joe Biden is compromised by the CCP and it shows.
BS!
Just another in a long line of surrenders by the whimpering gutless republicans...
To think that these gutless weasels will accomplish anything significant if they take back the House & Senate in November is ludicrous...
The ruling communists will just slow down and drive around that bump as they have for almost 100 years...
I’ll believe it when I see it.
Is it really a victory when it’s only your side that votes in favor of it and you have the majority.
Wait until CPI is 14%
They are ALL thieves!!!!
It would be if MSM told the truth about it. Whee were the GOP ads warning the country they are about to terrorized by 87,000 IRS goons.
I would rather go to a flat tax or national sales tax. Just get rid of the IRS, or most of it. This is what we should be doing. Instead they expand it.
That proves that the Democrats consider the COVID-19 virus to be a situational problem that changes to suit their immediate needs.
