Republican Governors cut millions of American workers who lost their jobs off of crucial support for the unemployed. They claimed it would force people back to work, but a month later Fed Chair Powell says we can't "see a difference." — PolitiTweet.org

Powell on extra $300 in jobless aid: "We can't really see a difference between states that haven't eliminated that."

Given this track record, MacLean’s selection to head a task force charged with improving community trust, transparency, and policing oversight is inappropriate. @Interior and the National Capital Region would be well served if the Secretary chose someone else to lead this effort. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
Mr. MacLean subsequently refused to engage with the Ghaisar family, explain how the officers’ actions were justified under the U.S. Park Police’s use of force guidelines, or even reveal the officers’ names until he was forced to do so by court order. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
I have not forgotten that Mr. MacLean refused for years to answer questions from community leaders and Members of Congress, including me, about the shooting of an unarmed man, Bijan Ghaisar, in my district by two officers who served under him in the U.S. Park Police. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
Secretary Haaland’s efforts to strengthen community trust and ensure reform after last summer’s violent crackdown on peaceful protesters in Lafayette Square are admirable and necessary. I worry the task force will not achieve these ends if it is led by Director MacLean. — PolitiTweet.org

Robert MacLean’s response to the killing of Bijan Ghaisar shows that he is the wrong person for this job, and I urge the Department of the Interior’s leadership to reconsider his appointment. My statement: https://t.co/3wZy6dEJmE — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
Fed Chair Powell is joined by most of America's leading economists in believing these inflationary pressures we are seeing now will be transitory. The bottom line is that the fundamentals of our economy point to a strong recovery. More on that here: 14/14 https://t.co/v2s1o1lyX9 — PolitiTweet.org

I am not at all surprised to see my Republican colleagues distort economic data for political gain. They are rooting economic pain and President Biden to fail, they want to capitalize politically off of economic suffering. But you shouldn't be fooled, the recovery is strong. 13/ https://t.co/0mIvsNE0ke — PolitiTweet.org

Many of the price increases we've seen, for instance airfares and hotel rooms, are rising sharply now only after falling drastically during the pandemic. Airfares and hotel rooms are actually *lower* right now than they were just two years ago: https://t.co/LmcgJifMQC 12/ — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans have also been blaming President Biden for rising gas prices, a thing that happens every summer when drivers take to the road and was bound to be especially acute after so much pent up demand for travel. It is a bunch of malarkey: https://t.co/mGiSS5Pwgx 11/ — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
Republicans were tripping over themselves to talk about how rising lumber prices proved President Biden's policies were to blame for rampant inflation. Then lumber prices fell; they are down for the year now. Funny, we aren't hearing much about that now 10 https://t.co/CPbqOvZcCK https://t.co/IfkDlLmclG — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
This spring we saw car dealers with empty lots. That isn't normal, and it isn't going to last. This is true of many of our other drivers of inflation right now as well. The Fed expects many of the price increases we are seeing now to be temporary. 9/ https://t.co/in2FKxAslO — PolitiTweet.org

If you understand the basics of supply and demand you know what was sure to follow: prices went through the roof. But both supply and demand conditions are temporary, so you can also predict what will probably happen next: prices fall again. Sure enough 8/ https://t.co/5P51tlcl1Q — PolitiTweet.org

At the same time, the auto industry had a huge and unexpected hit to demand: the chip shortage. The freeze in Texas and a factory fire in Japan put a big squeeze on an essential component for car manufacturers, made worse when some countries started hoarding their chip supply. 7/ https://t.co/tgiCfhG9tG — PolitiTweet.org

Rental companies that sold off much of their fleets during the pandemic scrambled to replace them. This was at the same time that regular people were trying to buy new and used cars, creating an incredible surge in demand. 6/ https://t.co/40c2zOhrGY — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
If you talk an auto dealer they will tell you that this year is a time unlike anything they've ever seen. People have had money to spend, and many were trying to rely less on shared transit like trains and ride shares because of pandemic concerns. Cars have been VERY popular. 5/ — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer
Cars, as I said, accounted for a huge percentage in the price increases we are seeing right now. Without these automotive industry-related price increases, June's monthly inflation was right in line with Fed targets. 4/ https://t.co/fVG2MAB2xd — PolitiTweet.org

For over a year many Americans couldn't travel and were worried about the economy and their personal finances. Now we have the virus on the run, the American Rescue Plan is putting money in people's pockets, and many are ready to travel again. That brings us back to cars. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

First, quick background on the economic conditions: they are extremely promising. CBO projects record GDP growth, workers' wages are rising, we've added 3 million jobs so far this year, unemployment is falling sharply, and on Thursday the enhanced child tax credit kicks in. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
