WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) issued the following statement on President Biden’s visit to North Carolina, where he is expected to deliver a speech about rising inflation. 

“Hardworking North Carolinians are sick of inflation and tired of President Biden’s excuses. They see the consequences of his failed economic agenda every time they go to the grocery store and fill up their gas tank. The worst inflation in more than 40 years has been fueled by Congressional Democrats and the Biden-Harris administration recklessly spending and wasting trillions over the last 15 months. President Biden’s only answer to date is blaming everyone else for his decisions and pushing a multi-trillion dollar tax and spending spree that would make inflation even worse. Our country is in desperate need of a new direction to get our economy back on track.”
