On Tuesday, U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), chairman of the Senate Republican Conference, issued the following statement after the November 2022 Consumer Price Index (CPI) revealed inflation has risen 13.8% since Joe Biden took office in January 2021.
“Holiday cheer is coming at a much higher cost this year because of Joe Biden’s fiscal insanity. Wyoming families are facing the most expensive Christmas ever.
