U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore:
So do we need to stop using some of these abstractions like the Inflation Reduction Act. I mean, that means absolutely nothing to people. They don't understand that that's how they got $35 a month insulin. You know, when you're talking about the bipartisan infrastructure bill, they need to understand that when we're getting those lead pipes up out of the ground where we have 2,500 kids a year being poisoned by lead, that those orange cones, that's not a traffic problem. That's money that's going into households for those who work and that is saving the lives and the intellectual capacity of our next generation. I mean, when you can, inflation — the whole world has experienced inflation, but Kamala Harris centers it — it's not, the supply chain problems are over again, it's just greed at this point. And I'm going to do something about that. This is where I think that you penetrate and you get past just sort of the word salad that politicians are so good at.
