White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki has claimed that Republicans are opposing President Biden’s spending proposal because they are “rooting for inflation.”
“Q: Why, when Americans are seeing higher prices, are Republicans united against a bill to lower core costs on prescription drugs, health care, child care, and elder care? A: They’re rooting for inflation,” Psaki tweeted
She made the comment while retweeting a post that included quotes from GOP Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, who is the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
