RNC Statement on Biden's New Jersey and New York Fundraisers

WASHINGTON – Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on Biden’s New Jersey and New York fundraisers: 

"Biden to meet with the only people who approve of his agenda: wealthy Democrat elites. Biden’s inability to campaign outside of the Acela corridor proves out of touch he is with Americans facing rising prices, skyrocketing crime, and an open border. Democrats are trying to hide from Biden yet voters know they rubberstamped Biden’s disastrous agenda.”

Background:

• Joe Biden has campaigned significantly less during the midterms compared to his predecessors.
• Biden has failed to stand up to the radicals in his own party who want to defund the police and force their soft-on-crime agenda onto America, with residents in Democrat-run states left to face the consequences.
• The Consumer Price Index soared in August by 8.3 percent compared to last year, meaning inflation remains at a near 40-year high.
• Core consumer prices – excluding food and energy – rose by 6.3 percent from last year, coming in well above economists’ expectations.
