O’Halleran to AZ-01 families: The price of gas is “not out of control”

The Washington Post reports that prices rose 6.2 percent in October, as inflation hits a 30-year high.

But Congressman Tom O’Halleran says he’s still not concerned about the rapid rise in the cost of goods for Arizona families. 

After telling Bloomberg in September that “Inflation is not out of control,” O’Halleran doubled down on his stance during a town hall last week saying, “inflation right now is problematic but not out of control as far as the economists across our entire nation have indicated.”

NRCC COMMENT: “Arizonans are experiencing skyrocketing prices at the gas pump and grocery store because Tom O’Halleran’s support for Democrats’ tax-and-spending sprees has caused an inflation crisis.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair
