Joe Biden will travel to Scranton, PA today in an attempt to mislead voters about the harsh realities of life under his failed administration.

 

Statement: "Bidenomics is failing Pennsylvanians as the price of everyday necessities continues to soar. Joe Biden's solution to this crisis is to raise taxes on hard-working families. President Trump will cut taxes and unleash American prosperity." -- Alex Pfeiffer, spokesman for Make America Great Again Inc. 

 

 

Background:

 

  • If Biden gets his way and imposes his disastrous high-tax, high-spend agenda, every American will pay more in taxes.
    • Biden’s proposed budget will inflict nearly $5 trillion in additional taxes on businesses and families over the next decade.
      • If enacted, Biden’s proposed budget will kill 160,000 jobs and slash wages for the lowest earners.
    • Joe Biden's proposed corporate tax hike would result in the immediate loss of approximately 1 million jobs.
    • Biden’s IRS is coming after families: 63% of new audits in 2023 targeted the middle class.
    • President Trump’s historic Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was the largest tax reform in history, and lowered taxes for all income brackets, benefiting the working and middle classes the most. Filers earning less than $50,000 a year saw a tax cut of up to 26%, while filers earning less than $100,000 saw a tax cut of up to 17%. If allowed to expire, hard-working Americans will be forced to pay even more than they already are.
  • Thanks to Bidenflation, the average Pennsylvanian family is forced to spend $10,656 more every year just to make ends meet.
    • Prices are up an unaffordable 19.4% since Biden took office in January 2021.
    • The price of gallon of gas has soared over 52%, eggs are up 49%, household repair costs are up 41%, baby food is 31% more expensive, electricity costs 29% more, groceries are over 21% more expensive, rent is up 20% – all thanks to Bidenflation.
  • Joe Biden is lying about his healthcare record:
    • Private health insurance premiums have risen for the third year in a row under Biden. In 2024, Americans purchasing a plan through the marketplace will pay a record $584 a month, or $7,008 a year, for their coverage.
    • For two years in a row, Joe Biden has slashed payments to 33 million Americans—over half of the Medicare population—enrolled in Medicare Advantage.
    • Average workplace health insurance premiums for employees and their families jumped 7% in 2023, climbing to nearly $24,000.
    • The rule changes in the Biden administration’s Notice of Benefit and Payment Parameters for 2024 will kick nearly 3 million people off their health plans by making over 57% of plans currently offered through the federal marketplace illegal.
    • President Trump has ensured that, under his leadership, Republicans will protect Medicare and Social Security: “DO NOT CUT the benefits our seniors worked for and paid for their entire lives.”
  • DRILL, BABY, DRILL: President Trump will unleash Pennsylvania’s true economic potential by rebuilding American energy dominance, and energy production in Keystone State will help lead our nation back to prosperity and security.
