WASHINGTON – Last night, Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) joined The Evening Edit on Fox Business Network to discuss the Trump administration's commitment to addressing affordability after years of harmful Democrat policy.
Watch the full interview here.
"It was Democrat policy that caused the greatest inflation that we've seen in more than a generation":
"100 percent. I thought Fareed Zakaria's take was actually quite good. It was Democrat policy that caused the greatest inflation that we've seen in more than a generation. It's Democrat policy, overregulation when it comes to building materials, when it comes to energy, that is making electricity costs more expensive, making it more expensive to build housing in the United States... The status is clear. When you look at Democrat policy, it always leads to higher prices, crazy regulations which increase the cost on everybody, but if you look at the agenda of President Trump, our Governor of Florida Ron DeSantis, my proposals, it is about lowering costs for the American people because if costs are low, it allows people to thrive, to build generational wealth, and really live the American dream."
"I think, and for Republicans, we cannot just rest on our laurels of the fact that Democrats put forward crazy policy. We have to continue to deliver":
"Taxing and spending, crazy regulations do not help people thrive and succeed. That is a fundamental fact. I think, and for Republicans, we cannot just rest on our laurels of the fact that Democrats put forward crazy policy. We have to continue to deliver. Up here on Capitol Hill, yes, Republicans, we need a healthcare strategy that will end the crazy regulations of Obamacare, pushing down the cost of healthcare in the United States. Throughout all of our states, we have to get lean and efficient with other people's money. Lean and efficiency is what matters."
