   Blaming Republicans for COVID-19 deaths is shameful.   

The Democrats in Washington do not understand how we help people achieve their own American Dream - the government doesn't create jobs; we know that unleashing the private sector builds prosperity. Progressives could care less about rising wages, the lowest unemployment rate ever, and the lowest poverty rate in history. It appears their objective is canceling us, those with whom they disagree, all Republicans. Their goal is to expand government, infringe on our freedoms, and turn us into a socialist country. In a hearing yesterday, Squad member Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), by name, blamed Republicans for the 500,000 COVID deaths across the country and then doubled down when I called her on it. I won't allow my colleagues in Washington to manifest and spread this false narrative. She should be ashamed of her comments. Watch my remarks from the recent budget hearing.
