After a full year of Republican rule in Washington, prices are rising across the board due to their reckless policies backed by Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Zach Nunn.
A new study from the Joint Economic Committee released today shows the average family in Iowa is spending on average $1,303 more on everyday expenses, such as housing, transportation, food, clothing, health care and utilities.
Miller-Meeks, Nunn, and their party bosses promised to lower costs for Americans on day one – but have done the exact opposite. As a result of dysfunction and chaos in the halls of Congress, nothing is getting done to lower costs – and things are just getting more expensive.
To make matters worse, Miller-Meeks and Nunn voted for the Big, Ugly Law, which is ripping health care and food assistance away from hardworking Americans, making health care and groceries more expensive in order to fund massive tax breaks to the wealthy and well-connected. This year, Republicans let ACA tax credits lapse, causing health insurance premiums to skyrocket.
The DCCC will hold Miller-Meeks and Nunn accountable for their inaction on making life more affordable.
DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith:
“Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Zach Nunn promised to lower the high cost of living, but rising receipts and monthly bills don’t lie: Miller-Meeks and Nunn’s agenda is epically failing and Iowans are ready for new leadership.”
