President Donald Trump handed Joe Biden an economy that was beginning to roar back, and now Biden is trying to smother it.
In just 9 months, Republican policies helped bring back 56% of the jobs lost from the coronavirus.
Flashback: This is what people were saying about the economy in November 2020.

Thanks to the previous administration’s development and distribution plan under Operation Warp Speed, which Biden has falsely tried to claim credit for, millions of Americans have been vaccinated. At the same time, Republican governors around the country, such as in Florida and Iowa, have led the way in reopening our economy and getting our kids safely back in schools.
In contrast, Biden has slow-walked re-opening schools to appease Democrat special interest groups for months, even though we know closed schools disproportionally effect working parents. Congressional Democrats are in lockstep, repeatedly blocking Republican efforts to reopen schools.
By a vote of 49-50, the Senate DID NOT AGREE TO Cruz amendment #969 (related to public school funding) in relation to HR 1319 (American Rescue Plan Act).

Equally concerning, Biden now wants to stifle the recovering economy he inherited as businesses and workers are getting back on their feet. He’s calling for nearly $2 trillion in new tax hikes, including hiking the business tax rate to 28 percent – higher than communist China. Biden has even allowed an increase in foreign worker visas, making it easier for them to compete for American jobs.
Americans are getting back to work in spite of Biden’s policies, not because of them. We have Republican policies to thank for the American comeback, policies Biden is trying his best to undue, which will only hurt American businesses and workers.
