NRCC Releases Holiday Ad Targeting Susie Lee’s Support Of Bidenomics

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) has launched a new digital ad targeted to Nevada’s 3^rd Congressional district highlighting Susie Lee’s support for ‘Bidenomics’ policies costing Nevadans this Christmas.

The ad (see below) reminds Nevadans that reckless government spending has made shopping for the holidays radically more expensive this year, and according to numerous reports, inflation is hitting Nevadans the hardest.

As reported by The Globe, Bidenomics is not popular with Silver State voters. An estimated 3 in 4 swing-state voters said the country’s economy is headed down the wrong track and they are more likely than not to say their personal financial situation was better off under Trump than it is under Biden.

In fact, the average Nevadan household must spend an additional $13,296 annually just to maintain the same standard of living they enjoyed in January of 2021, right before inflation soared to 40-year highs, according to a recent analysis of government data.

To break it down further, Bidenflation adds up to an ongoing extra $1,108 monthly cost per Nevada household. Nevadans are spending an additional $146 on food, $237 on shelter, and $324 on energy costs than they were since Biden took office.

In May 2022, The Globe reported that Nevadan household were hit the hardest by inflation. At that time, Nevadans were paying an additional $8,231 annually for basic household expenses. The increase in monthly costs for average Nevada households were as follows: Food: $70; Shelter: $113; Transportation: $306; Energy: $175.

Based on these recent estimates, Nevadans have nearly doubled their monthly expenses in just one year.

With inflation wreaking havoc on wallets this holiday season, shoppers are cutting back.

• 74 percent of Americans say inflation will cause them to buy fewer holiday gifts this year according to a survey from the Bank of Montreal.
  • Almost two in five Americans indicated they would be buying less expensive gifts, and 55 percent plan to take on debt to cover holiday shopping.
• A third of Americans are choosing to skip presents altogether due to financial pressures, according to WalletHub’s 2023 holiday shopping survey.
• 31 percent of Americans are working extra hours or taking on a side gig to afford their purchases, according to Empower’s 2023 holiday spending report.
• Americans plan to buy an average of just eight gifts this year, down from 16 just two years ago, according to Deloitte’s holiday retail survey.

“The holidays are a time of reflection. This year we urge extreme House Democrats like Susie Lee to consider the consequences of their radical policies and add ‘announcing their retirement’ to their list of New Year’s resolutions,” said NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
