He pointed to a recent Gallup poll showing that half of Americans are fed up with how many things the government is involved with that should be left up to persons and private businesses.<\/p>\n<p>South Dakota Sen. John Thune (R) said since Biden has been in office, his administration has been \u201clurching from one crisis to the next.\u201d Thune added the Biden administration doesn\u2019t have a good answer to any of these problems and in fact, Democrat policies only make these issues worse. He specifically pointed to the poor impact of unions, which he said would be strengthened by the Democrats\u2019 spending proposals.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Americans are paying more for energy, gasoline, food, housing, and much more. The money that Americans earn is buying them less &amp; less every day. Ds can\u2019t downplay this anymore. Inflation is not fake, it is not temporary \u2013 it&#8217;s very real.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Senator John Thune (@SenJohnThune) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SenJohnThune\/status\/1450839240091254793?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 20, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso (R) also took aim at Biden over the economy, accusing him of being the sole cause of the current energy crisis. Barrasso went on to blast a statement by a White House official, claiming inflation is only a \u201chigh class problem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Wyoming lawmaker then criticized the White House\u2019s energy policies, saying its been attacking the fossil fuel industry since day one. This includes the immediate cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline and the blocking of new federal energy leases in Alaska. He added this has pushed Biden into seeking natural gas from Russia, rather than America producing its own natural gas and oil.<\/p>\n<p>The senators also touched on a provision in Democrats\u2019 spending packages to allow the IRS to have access to people\u2019s bank accounts. Sen. Thune pointed out that proposal would also raise the cost of the IRS, directly affecting taxes on the middle class.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/husband-of-missing-calif-mom-arrested-in-connection-with-her-disappearance\/\">Husband Of Missing Calif.
