The IRA has created more than 334,000 jobs nationwide and lowered costs for millions of families since 2022
Two years ago, the Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law, no thanks to Don Bacon who sided with MAGA Republicans to vote against this landmark legislation.
The historic Democratic legislation has delivered for working families across the country by cutting costs, creating jobs, and investing in American manufacturing. The Inflation Reduction Act has:
Capped prescription drug costs for Medicare recipients at $2,000 per year (starting in 2025). More than 18 million seniors will save an average of $400 a year, 1.8 million of which could save as much as $2,500 a year.
Kept the health care industry from raising costs on 34,000 people in NE-02 by $1,080 per year.
Don Bacon and MAGA House Republicans have voted 42 times to repeal the job creating investments in the Inflation Reduction Act. But that hasn’t stopped Bacon from spending thousands of dollars on ads that falsely take credit for capping insulin prices.
DCCC Spokesperson Mallory Payne:
“Don Bacon’s vote against the Inflation Reduction Act is just one of many examples of why Nebraskans cannot trust him. He won’t support common sense legislation that lowers costs, creates jobs, and grows the middle class. He’ll never put Nebraskans before his extreme party bosses and political career, and that’s why voters will elect new representation in November.”
