House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D., S.C.) on Thursday said congressional Democrats knew when they signed off on President Joe Biden’s multitrillion-dollar legislative plans that the laws would lead to increased inflation.
“Let me make it very clear. All of us are concerned about these rising costs, and all of us knew this would be the case when we put in place this recovery program,” Clyburn said on MSNBC after host José Díaz-Balart asked about Americans’ struggles with surging food and energy prices. “Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise.”
