A disappointing July jobs report. Just 114,000 jobs added, well below the 175,000 expected job gains. Unemployment up 4.3% — the highest in nearly three years. The Biden-Harris admin’s economic policies are putting American workers further behind.

Today, the national debt eclipsed $35 trillion for the first time — a grim milestone. Our children & grandchildren deserve a fighting chance to grow up in a prosperous society. Each day we refuse to change our fiscal trajectory, we're keeping that opportunity away from them.

While there was strong economic growth in the Q2 2024 advanced estimate — even outpacing quarterly increases to total public debt for the first time since Q1 2023 — total public debt has STILL outpaced the economy by $933 BILLION over the past four quarters.

The national debt is within $12 billion of eclipsing $35 trillion for the first time. While Washington continues its wasteful spending spree, hardworking families are being left behind & future generations are saddled with crushing debt. We must correct our fiscal trajectory.

The average U.S. household must spend $1,085 more each month to maintain the same standard of living they had when President Biden took office. Families are falling behind because of this administration’s disastrous economic policies.

Charcoal won't be the only thing going up in flames at this year's Independence Day cookout — so will Americans' wallets. Families will be paying for the most expensive 4th of July ever, per @FarmBureau . The average grocery bill is $71.22 — up 5% from 2023 & up 30% since 2019.

In April, the federal government spent more on net interest over the previous year than all DOD funding for the first time ever. This level of borrowing is unsustainable. We cannot continue to bankrupt the nation & pass along the consequences to our children & grandchildren.
