COGOP Statement on the “Biden-Bennet Recession”

Greenwood Village, CO. Colorado GOP Chairwoman Kristi Burton Brown released the following statement today regarding the news that the United States’ economy shrank for the 2nd straight quarter, meaning the United States is now unfortunately in a recession:

“This recession might as well be named the ‘Biden-Bennet Recession’ because both of them are fully responsible for its occurrence. Joe Biden, Michael Bennet, and the Democrats’ reckless spending has forced the United States into an unnecessary economic downturn – after a year of Coloradans already paying painfully high gas prices and record high inflation.

“Colorado families are suffering because of these failed economic policies. In November, voters will elect Republican leaders who will prioritize lowering the cost of living, American energy independence, and pro-growth economic policies that will help everyone.”
