July 12, 2021

Whether it’s at the gas station or the grocery store, American families are seeing prices skyrocket everywhere they go – and there’s no end in sight, warns Ways and Means Republican Rep. Drew Ferguson (R-GA).

 

In an op-ed for The Hill, Rep. Ferguson wrote:

 

“Inflation is coming at Americans like a freight train, and it won’t stop unless we pump the brakes on President Biden’s liberal agenda.”
