Governor Stitt Joins 14 GOP Governors in Letter Slamming Biden Economic Policies, Demanding Relief from Supply Chain Crisis

Governor Kevin Stitt joined 14 Republican governors in a letter slamming the Biden administration’s misguided economic policies, including the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for private businesses, which have resulted in the highest level of inflation in 30 years and supply and labor shortages across the nation. The letter also affirms the governors’ commitment to ensuring a fast and free flow of commerce and calls on the administration to revise any federal policies that deter domestic manufacturing of essential transportation equipment, as well as halting further attempts to raise taxes, spend trillions and grow our national debt.

“Rather than unleashing the economy, President Biden dramatically increased regulations and rulemaking authority that prevent private sector growth. The President mandated vaccines on private businesses, putting more jobs in jeopardy as we work to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. With 7.4 million people unemployed and 10.4 million job openings, we have a shortage of 80,000 truck drivers, an all-time high for the trucking industry. With more paychecks at risk, American families are forced to pay more for food, gas, and everyday goods as inflation surges to a 30-year high under President Biden’s watch,” the letter states.
