Mathis will make things worse for Iowans

Just when you think the Biden Administration could not possibly make anything worse, they prove you wrong. Months of lockdowns suffocated small businesses, and now, with massive supply-chain issues and inflation at an all-time high, the uphill battle has only escalated. Joe Biden and Speaker Nancy Pelosi are spending trillions of our taxpayer dollars, catering to their far-left base, with no consideration of how their overspending affects everyday people. The spike in the cost of goods, fuel, groceries, you name it, keeps every dollar from going farther, which only compounds worsening my business’s bottom line.
Liz Mathis thinks along these same lines and would only make matters worse if she’s elected to Congress. She is Biden and Pelosi’s top recruit and a small-business owner’s worst nightmare. Liz Mathis voted against the largest tax cut in Iowa history. It’s as if she gives no consideration of how it would affect the everyday Iowan. It has been a struggle keeping my business going through lockdowns, supply-chain issues, and skyrocketing inflation. Liz Mathis has no intention to make things better or easier for Iowan. She won’t have my support in November. I would ask your readers to think long and hard no matter what their party. I would urge them to vote for positive results, instead of narratives and propaganda!
