EXCLUSIVE: The White House is firing back at Sen. Rick Scott after his latest television ads targeting President Biden, slamming the Republican senator for “exploiting inflation to rip off working families with more welfare for the rich.”
Scott for his"11 Point Plan to Rescue America," which proposed raising income taxes on Americans.
"All Americans should pay some income tax to have skin in the game, even if a small amount," Scott wrote in the plan."Currently over half of Americans pay no income tax. And a senior Republican source told Fox News that"income tax hikes are never part of the discussion when Republicans are in charge in Washington."
Though Scott chairs the National Republican Senatorial Committee, which is leading the GOP’s effort to take back the Senate majority, the ad is funded by his own Senate reelection committee, Rick Scott for Florida.Meanwhile, as for inflation, the Labor Department said Friday that the consumer price index, a broad measure of the price for everyday goods including gasoline, groceries and rent, rose 8.6% in May from a year ago. Prices jumped 1% in the one-month period from April.
