High prices here to stay in Oregon

CNBC reports “Inflation rose more than expected in August as rising shelter and food costs offset a drop in gas prices, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Tuesday.”

The price of food is expected to increase by 11% this year alone, and electricity prices continue to soar.

The so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ that Val Hoyle and Jamie McLeod-Skinner supported isn’t working.

NRCC Comment: “Instead of combating inflation, Val Hoyle and Jamie McLeod-Skinner support hiking taxes on the middle class and hiring IRS agents to audit struggling Oregon workers and families.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Courtney Parella
