Starting in January, we’re capping the cost of insulin for seniors on Medicare at $35 a month. That’s more money at the end of the month to pay for groceries, to get your car repaired, to put toward holiday shopping for your grandkids.

Congressional Republicans want to cut Social Security and Medicare. They’re even saying they’ll shut down the government and let America default on its debts if we won’t cooperate with the cuts. Talk about irresponsible.

Some of you are on Social Security. Or your parents or grandparents are. They earned it with every single paycheck – from the day they started working. Republicans in Congress want to put it on the chopping block.

Let’s be crystal clear on what repealing the Inflation Reduction Act means. The power we gave Medicare to negotiate lower prescription drug prices? Gone. The $2,000 cap on prescription drugs for seniors? Gone. The $35-a-month cap on insulin for folks on Medicare? Gone.

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, if Big Pharma tries to raise drug prices faster than inflation, they’ll have to write a check to Medicare to cover the difference. Instead of that money going to drug companies, it’ll go into your pockets in the form of lower drug prices.

It’s time for oil companies to stop the war profiteering, meet their responsibilities to this country, and give the American people a break at the pump.

In the last six months, 6 of the largest oil companies made over $100 billion in profits. $100 billion in less than 200 days. If these companies were taking average profits on refining, instead of the profits they’re making today, gas prices would come down around 50 cents.

Gas prices are down more than $1.20 since their peak this summer. And they’ve been falling for each of the last three weeks. That’s adding up to real savings for America’s families.

The oil industry has a choice. Either invest in America by lowering prices for consumers at the pump and increasing production and refining capacity. Or pay a higher tax on your excessive profits and face other restrictions.

I’m focused on creating good-paying jobs, lowering costs for families, and manufacturing more here at home. Republicans in Congress have a different vision. One that benefits the wealthy and drives up and inflation and costs for everybody else.

For 50 years, the Congressional Republican economic policy has been simple. Take care of those at the top, and everything trickles down to the rest of us. It’s failed for 50 years. It’ll fail again.

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, we’re going to reduce the deficit by another $250 billion over the next decade. Every single Republican in Congress voted against this reduction. And, they’re pushing for tax cuts that would drive the deficit up by $3 trillion.

We’re making sure the biggest corporations begin to pay their fair share in taxes. I signed into law a 15% corporate minimum tax. And, no one earning less than $400,000 a year will pay a penny more in federal taxes.

We’re capping seniors’ out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs at $2,000 a year – even if their drugs cost $10,000, $12,000, $14,000 a year like some cancer drugs do. Instead of that money going to Big Pharma, it’s going back into folks’ pockets.

Oil companies made billions in profits this quarter. They’re using these record profits to pay out their wealthy shareholders instead of investing in production and lowering costs for Americans. It’s unacceptable. It’s time for these companies to bring down prices at the pump.

The deficit fell by $1.4 trillion this year. That’s the largest one-year drop in American history. On the other hand, Congressional Republicans are pushing for tax cuts that would add about $3 trillion to the deficit.

I will never cut Medicare or Social Security. You have my word. Republicans in Congress have made it clear they will hold the economy hostage if we don’t agree to their cuts to Medicare and Social Security. You should take them at their word.

Folks, hidden "junk" fees are unfair. And they hit the most vulnerable Americans hardest, especially low-income folks and people of color. They benefit big corporations – not consumers or working families. My Administration is ending them.
