Sen. Chuck Schumer on Wednesday suggested Democrat lawmakers tout “Lower Energy Bills” to their constituents after energy costs spiked 8.7 percent in January.
Schumer penned the letter with Sen. Debbie Stabenow , the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee chair, to encourage Democrat senators to use the upcoming recess as an opportunity to champion lower energy bills. “Thanks to the good work of President Biden and his Administration, there is a team for us to partner with as we work to turn this legislation into good-paying jobs, lower costs, and new economic opportunities for the American people,” the letter began.
In the last section of the letter, Schumer and Stabenow say constituents have the opportunity to enjoy lower energy bills because of a tax credit passed in the so-called Inflation Reduction Act. Hey Californians, if you vote for Democrats then you can’t complain that energy options are shrinking and prices are going up.
