Rep. Perry voices concern to Newsmax: Americans struggling as Biden touts GDP
According to Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa., President Joe Biden is highlighting the newly released gross domestic product (GDP) numbers as a positive development, despite the fact that many Americans are struggling and facing financial challenges.
The latest report from the Commerce Department indicates a significant slowdown in GDP growth, dropping from 3.4% in the final quarter of 2023 to a 1.6% annual pace in the first quarter of the current year.
Perry expressed his concerns during an interview on Newsmax’s “Carl Higbie FRONTLINE,” emphasizing how many Americans are experiencing financial difficulties despite the reported growth in GDP numbers.
He criticized the Biden administration for dismissing the struggles of everyday Americans and urged people to pay attention to their own financial situations rather than relying on government reassurances.
Biden, on the other hand, celebrated the GDP numbers in a statement, emphasizing his efforts to ensure that no one is left behind and highlighting the overall strength of the American economy.
In response to the ongoing economic challenges faced by Americans, Biden reiterated his commitment to lowering costs for working families and addressing the needs of the middle class.
