McHenry Statement in Response to Biden’s State of the Union Address


Washington, February 7, 2023 -

Today, the Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, Patrick McHenry (NC-10), issued the following statement in response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address:

“During tonight’s State of the Union, President Biden did what he does best: ignore the realities facing everyday Americans in favor of political theater and progressive goals,” said Chairman McHenry. “Thanks to his reckless far-left policies, Americans have struggled with skyrocketing inflation, seen crime rise at alarming rates, and feel less secure thanks to an open border and unchecked global threats like China. Rather than solutions to these problems, President Biden called for more of the same bad policies that have left a majority of Americans feeling worse off financially than ever before.

“President Biden demonstrated once again how out of touch he is with everyday Americans like those here in western North Carolina. The American people don’t need reactionary policies, they need real solutions that will keep them safe and make it easier for them to provide for their families.”
