Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – In tonight’s debate, Bob Casey Jr. continued to blame job creators for rising consumer costs.
However, a closer look at Casey’s voting record shows that he was the tie-breaking vote for the Biden-Harris Administration’s inflationary spending policies.
AFP Action Senior Advisor Emily Greene issued the following statement:
“Bob Casey voted for the so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the American Rescue Plan, and the CHIPS Act. When he voted for trillions in spending, he voted to overheat the economy. Inflation is simply the invisible tax all Americans have been paying on the Biden-Harris economic agenda.
“The least he could do is admit he voted for it, instead of blaming businesses. Fortunately, Dave McCormick understands the need for fiscal responsibility and he will vote to keep the federal government living within its means. That’s why AFP Action is knocking doors every day between now and November 5: because we can’t afford another six years of Casey voting for wasteful government spending and then expecting Pennsylvanians to foot the bill.
