A local Congressman is pushing back against the President's "Build Back Better" plan. First District Representative Bryan Steil of Janesville issued a statement regarding Novembers' record level inflation report. Steil also points to a Congressional Budget Office report indicating the "Build Back Better" social spending bill would add $3 trillion to the deficit if the programs were made permanent. The Republican contends once a government program is created, it never goes away.

Republican leaders blasted President Joe Biden after November's Consumer Price Index released Friday reached its highest level in 39 years.

Congress is gearing up to spend trillions of dollars on what is being labeled as a "transformative agenda to provide for the American people." In reality, we are expecting a massive expansion of our government, and to raise taxes in order to pay for this social spending plan. We have heard these plans will generate economic growth and cost $0. However, every American knows this proposal will cost the government trillions of dollars and increase already rising prices.

The $1.75 trillion spending bill approved by the House last week is a "disaster waiting to happen," so Republicans must make the American people aware of how bad it is so it can be killed in the Senate, Rep. Bryan Steil said Monday on Newsmax.

Republican foreign policy leaders in Congress are asking the Biden administration to turn over information about any steps it has taken to hold the Iranian regime accountable for human rights abuses, according to a letter sent late last week to the White House.
