That was about lowering prices for Americans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Buttigieg&#8217;s comments come after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxbusiness.com\/economy\/inflation-surged-september-prices-remain-stubbornly-high\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">U.S. inflation rate surged<\/a> in September. According to the latest Consumer Price Index report, prices climbed 8.2% on an annual basis.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And I would have loved nothing more than to have a debate between the Democratic Inflation Reduction Act and the Republican Inflation Reduction Act on the House or the floor in Senate,&#8221; Buttigieg continued. &#8220;But there was only one, and it was ours.
