Summary

For weeks, Democrats were committed to pushing the Inflation Reduction Act with claims that it would revive the economy and bring down prices but have remained silent after another month of rising inflation. FOX News Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram discusses the underlying problems and practicality of IRA. Later, he compares IRA to the STOCK Act in 2012 and explains how Republicans may not be completely opposed to the policy, but are still reluctant to go easy on Joe Manchin. With just six weeks from the Midterm Election, the latest FOX News polls among Georgia voters show incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock is ahead of Republican Herschel Walker by five points, while the incumbent Republican Governor Brian Kemp widens his lead against Democrat Stacey Abrams. Political Columnist at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Patricia Murphy weighs in on Georgia voters’ thoughts on varying issues including inflation, former President Trump, and the candidates running for GA's Senate and Governor seats. Later, she breaks down how Georgia becoming more of a swing state, the keys to watch for as we get prepared, and whether parties or candidates themselves play a bigger role in the race.
