Biden's State of the Union address ignored struggling American families
Fox News
The American people are hurting right now. Groceries and gas are more expensive, our streets are less safe, and our kids have suffered through two chaotic years of forced masking and closed classrooms. Abroad, our enemies are becoming increasingly aggressive and threatening our safety and security.
To hear Biden tell it, our economy is thriving. The American people know that the exact opposite is true. Families from coast-to-coast are struggling to make ends meet as the cost of basic goods like food, gas, and furniture skyrockets at the highest rate in forty years. Biden claimed he is focused on helping middle class and lower income Americans. In reality, 66% of Americans making less than $40,000 a year have reported inflation negatively impacting their financial situation. Meanwhile, millions of Americans still can’t find jobs. Those who have found work are doing so largely in red states: 16 out of the 20 top states for jobs recovered since the pandemic are led by Republican governors.
