Rep. Tim Ryan: 'Big mistake' to deny people are getting hammered by inflation

Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, warned against members of his party doing a "disservice" to struggling working Americans by denying how "bad" inflation is.

TIM RYAN: I've spent a good deal of time on farms and rural areas and in the cities as well. And people are getting absolutely hammered. I mean, there's no question about it. And so to deny that I think is a big mistake. People are getting hammered. We need a tax cut for working people, whether it's the earned income tax cut, a general tax cut for working people and small businesses. It's like it's stuff. It's bad. It's real bad for people. And so ignoring that or trying to somehow, you know, sugar coat it, I think does a disservice to the people who are out there struggling every single day. I've been calling now for months for us to bring a tax cut for people here in the United States, working people.
