Congressman Flood Votes Against President Biden’s Inflation Expansion Act

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Congressman Mike Flood voted “no” on H.R. 5376 (Inflation Expansion Act of 2022). Following the vote, the Congressman issued the following statement.
“As the nation’s economy slides further into recession and inflation wreaks havoc on household budgets, congressional Democrats are only making life harder for working Americans who are trying to put food on the table and make a better life for their families,” said Congressman Flood. “President Biden’s Inflation Expansion Act not only raises taxes, increases spending, and expands inflation, but it also deploys an army of 87,000 new IRS agents who will target hardworking Americans with new audits. I emphatically voted no on this and will continue to push back on President Biden’s tax and spend agenda.”
Congressman Flood is a member of the Committee on House Oversight and Reform as well as the Committee on Small Business.
