Democrats’ reckless spending ignores the crashing economy and is a slap in the face to hard working Americans.

The price of food is up 10.9% from this time last year—another 40+ year high.   President Biden can try to spin it however he wants, but the American people know that today’s inflation report is bad news.

Even former president Obama knows it’s a bad idea to raise taxes in a recession.

If the past two years have taught us anything, it is the importance of parents’ voices in children’s education. My new bill would have given parents the resources they need to pursue the education that works best for their children. thehill.com/opinion/educatio…

The priorities of this administration are out of line. They should be focusing on issues directly affecting the American people— like increased prices of food and daily necessities!

Make no mistake: this bill will increase tax burdens on generations of Americans. That’s why I voted ‘no’ and will continue fighting against Democrats’ economic plans that put the American Dream further out of reach for families across our nation.

Today, Democrats again tried to spend their way out of the inflation caused—ironically—by their reckless spending. With inflation raging and our economy heading into a recession, Democrats still chose to spend money we don’t have on things Americans don’t need—and didn’t ask for.

Democrats want to make the IRS bigger than the Pentagon, the State Department, the FBI, & the Border Patrol... combined.   My motion would have put our priorities straight by redirecting IRS funding to parents to help their kids recover from learning loss. scott.senate.gov/media-cente…

When faced with the decision to spend $45 billion on America’s largest revenue collection agency, or give it back to parents to help them get their kids the help they need, the Senate needs to choose the latter option every single time. freebeacon.com/policy/dems-p…

I couldn’t be prouder to be from Charleston— known for its great culinary scene. This restaurant-inside-a-restaurant is helping chefs & entrepreneurs bring more flavor to the Charleston area. I can’t wait to get a taste of what they cook up! scott.senate.gov/media-cente…

Many reports have confirmed the Democrats’ tax & spending bill will not do as they claim. It will increase taxes, increase consumer cost, and it will not reduce inflation

A quality education is an investment in a child’s future. I am proud to join @SenatorTimScott in introducing the #RecoverAct to empower parents & bring scholarship $$ to kids in need. More below 👇🏼
Students across the nation continue to struggle after months—and in some cases years—of school closures. Today, I introduced the RECOVER Act to allow parents to get their kids the individualized help they need. scott.senate.gov/media-cente…

The Democrats’ reckless spending bill is nothing but a job-killing corporate tax and partisan spending gimmick. Americans will be stuck with the bill.

Gov. @henrymcmaster gets it! Now is not the time to hike taxes. We need real leadership with practical solutions.
The Democrats’ “solution” to record-high gas prices and inflation? Runaway spending and tax hikes. While we’re cutting taxes in SC, the President and his allies are raising them in DC. Our people can’t afford to pay for this radical liberal agenda any longer.
