Atlanta, GA – Today, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released the Consumer Price Index for January. The ‘all items index’ showed a 7.5% increase over the past 12 months, marking a 40-year high. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement:

“As inflation surges 7.5% on an annual basis, we see how President Biden and his administration have ruined the American dream. His demands for reckless spending and higher taxes — even months after it’s become clear he does not have a majority in the Congress — and his authoritarian Covid policies of lockdowns and mandates have crushed many lives and livelihoods, and the American people can see it in plain sight. Biden is a failure. His policies are a failure. He has broken America. He must end the COVID emergency and all mandates today, all of it, so Americans can get back to work to fix what his administration broke.”
