CAPITO BLAMES BIDENOMICS FOR HIGH GROCERY STORE BILL

Press Release

"I know you see it as well when you go to the grocery store. Last week I went on a Sunday and I couldn't believe what I had in my cart cost $69. Normally it would have been a $40 trip, and it was much more than I expected. I think people are seeing it all of the time. I hear it in the grocery store as well.

So I'm very concerned about the president going around selling Bidenomics when I know that means you spend more to get less. There is less savings going around. Credit card rates are going up. Interest rates are going up. And now we are seeing a slowdown in the workforce as well, so I'm deeply concerned.

The interest rates are killing people in terms of wanting to get into the mortgage business or buying a car. Interest rates are so high making the payment so out-of-reach certainly for a lot of first-time homebuyers, but also for a lot of other people -- hard-working people who are trying to get ahead.

I talk about this probably every week. But it is concerning. I don't think the president really cares. He wants an open border. People know it and they come.

Well I think 2024 is an incredibly important position from the presidential (election), and most particularly I see the impacts of it," she said. "And I don't think we can take four more years of that. So the presidency is a very, very critical position.

The issue of abortion is a deeply held, contentious issue. I think we need to say what we are for and what we are against."
