Inflation is up. Wages are down.

Rapid Response

Today’s inflation report is bad news.

Don’t take it from us. Take it from former Obama economist Jason Furman, who DEBUNKED Biden’s talking points on inflation: “Nothing in this number gives me comfort…This inflation issue is real. I don’t think it is going away anytime soon, and I think anyone who is overly calm about it is making me nervous.”

The bad news for American workers: Year-over-year real wages have now been negative for 22 straight months.

That’s a real wages recession for American workers, and why a record number of Americans say they are worse off under Joe Biden.
