Sen. Lindsey Graham urges the CBO to analyze the effect of Democrats' reconciliation bill, how it will effect inflation and whether the tax increase will stifle economic growth
Thomas Phippen is an Editor at Fox News.
Graham specifically asked the CBO whether the U.S. is currently in a recession, given that gross domestic product (GDP) has shrunk for two consecutive quarters this year, as the Department of Commerce announced earlier Thursday.
With inflation at a 40-year high, Graham also asked CBO to specifically analyze "what impact would this legislation have on consumer price inflation" in the next few years.
