Job Creators Network Responds to November Consumer Price Index

Alfredo Ortiz, CEO of Job Creators Network, released the following statement in response to the November Consumer Price Index, which rose by 2.7%, and Core CPI, which rose by 3.3%.

“Progress on the inflation fight has stalled in the waning days of the Biden administration. That’s unacceptable for small business owners who continue to cite high costs as their biggest problem, according to JCN’s national polling. It’s another reminder of why the American people gave Republicans a governing mandate to finally get inflation under control and jumpstart the economy.

“The incoming Trump administration and Republican Congress must make it a top goal to get the inflation rate — including core inflation — back below 2%. They can do this by immediately unleashing American energy and reducing reckless spending. For inflation-weary consumers and small businesses, Republican leadership can’t come soon enough.”
