Congresswoman Ashley Hinson (IA-01) released the below statement on inflation hitting 8.6%.
“The Biden Administration’s reckless spending and sidelining of American energy has led to higher costs for everything—in some parts of Iowa, gas is nearing $5 a gallon. This is taking a financial and emotional toll on Iowans who are struggling to put food on the table and make ends meet. That’s why I’ve introduced bipartisan legislation that would help rein in government spending to combat inflation and will continue pursuing commonsense solutions to make your daily life affordable again.” –Congresswoman Ashley Hinson
She should have thought about that when she voted to give 40BILLION to Ukraine!!
