Washington, D.C. – Senate hopeful Congressman Tim Ryan released a video about how now is the time to get serious on lowering costs and fix our supply chain by making things in America. Where have you been, Tim?! Oh yeah, adding to the problem…

Below are Congressman Ryan’s votes that have only added to the skyrocketing inflation and the anti-American energy agenda of Biden and the Democrats.

Spending:

  • On February 27, 2021, Ryan voted for $1.9 trillion in so-called COVID relief.
    • In November 2021, President Biden conceded that this money fueled the spike in inflation.
  • On November 19, 2021, Ryan voted for the multi-trillion-dollar Build Back Better Act.
    • This adds $3 trillion to the deficit.
    • Increases the SALT Deduction Cap to $80,000, costing $285 billion.
    • Forces Ohio job creators to pay higher taxes than China.

Anti-American Energy:

  • On December 20, 2017, Ryan voted against the Republican-backed 2017 tax relief plan that included provisions to open ANWR for drilling.
  • On September 8, 2017, Ryan voted for an amendment to ban drilling and fracking in the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf.
  • On July 19, 2017, Ryan voted against a bill to ease permitting for oil and gas pipelines that cross state and international lines.
  • On September 6, 2018, Ryan did not vote on a bill to expedite the application process for natural gas exports and imports.
  • On March 8, 2018, Ryan voted against a bill to roll back Obama-era regulations on coal-fired power plants.
  • On July 19, 2018, Ryan voted against a resolution to express the sense of Congress that a carbon tax would damage the economy.
    • A 2018 Congressional Budget Office study concluded that a carbon tax would increase the prices of consumer goods.
  • On February 26, 2021, Ryan voted to block millions of acres of Federal lands from energy development and mining.
  • Supports Biden’s agenda of killing the Keystone Pipeline.

Statement from NRSC Spokeswoman Lizzie Litzow: “Here he goes again – saying one thing and doing the other. Tim Ryan says we now need to fix all of these problems he helped create, but why did he vote to create them in the first place? Ohioans can’t trust phony career politician Tim Ryan to do the right thing when it matters the most.”
