DeFazio’s vote forces Oregon families to spend more and earn less

July 13, 2021

Peter DeFazio said Democrats’ socialist stimulus bill would “get our economy back on track.”

However, reports show consumer prices in the US rose by 5.4% in June – the highest level of inflation in 13 years. Meanwhile real earnings dropped, falling by 1.4% and real hourly earnings fell by 1.7%.

NRCC Comment: “Peter DeFazio and his party’s socialist stimulus have created the highest level of inflation in 13 years. Oregonians who are now forced to pay more for their everyday goods will hold DeFazio accountable for supporting Democrats’ harmful economic policies.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Courtney Parella
