Strongly condemning ‘‘Kamalanomics’’, Vice President Kamala Harris’ radical 

economic agenda that has increased inflation, kept unemployment levels

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 

SEPTEMBER 17, 2024 

Mr. MOORE of Utah submitted the following resolution; which was referred 

to the Committee on Financial Services 

RESOLUTION 

Strongly condemning ‘‘Kamalanomics’’, Vice President 

Kamala Harris’ radical economic agenda that has increased inflation, kept unemployment levels painfully 

high, and raised prices on everyday goods and services 

for United States families. 

Whereas inflation is a tax on all Americans; 

Whereas, when Vice President Kamala Harris assumed office 

as part of the Biden-Harris administration, inflation was 

at just 1.4 percent; 

Whereas, since Vice President Harris assumed office, inflation has risen by 20.3 percent;

Whereas Americans are spending over $13,000 more annually 

to buy the basics because of Kamalaflation compared to 

3 years ago; 

Whereas, in August 2024, the Bureau of Labor Statistics revised down its total tally of jobs created from March 

2023 through March 2024 by 818,000, meaning that the 

number of jobs supposedly created by the Biden-Harris 

administration was artificially inflated by hundreds of 

thousands; 

Whereas this revision is the largest in 15 years; 

Whereas, in August 2024, the United States added just 

142,000 jobs, significantly lower than the 160,000 that 

economists had predicted; 

Whereas, from July 2023 versus July 2024, there has been 

a net-zero job growth; 

Whereas, since July 2023, the number of people working 

multiple jobs has drastically increased by 311,000; 

Whereas real wages remain lower than when Biden and Harris first took office; 

Whereas Kamalaflation outpaced wages for a majority of 

Biden’s Presidency, and both year-over-year real average 

hourly earnings and real average weekly earnings were 

negative for 25 months; 

Whereas inflation-adjusted average weekly earnings were 

$397.90 when Biden and Harris took office and are now 

$380.98 (the Bureau of Labor Statistics adjusts to 

1982–1984 dollars), meaning Americans have seen a 

4.25 percent decrease under Biden and Harris; 

Whereas interest rates have remained at a 23-year high;

•HRES 1460 IH 

Whereas the Federal debt has surpassed 

$35,000,000,000,000 for the first time in United States 

history due to the Biden-Harris administration’s unchecked and reckless Federal spending, burdening the 

next generation with a disastrous economic outlook and 

reducing their opportunity to achieve the American 

Dream; 

Whereas, due in part to Vice President Harris’ tiebreaking 

vote on the ironically named Inflation Reduction Act, 

Americans are on track to spend more on interest to 

service the national debt than on our national defense apparatus; 

Whereas the national deficit is nearing $2,000,000,000,000, 

the highest in United States history aside from the 

COVID–19 pandemic, as a result of the Biden-Harris administration’s Federal spending sprees; 

Whereas Americans are paying more for nearly everything 

due to the disastrous effects of Kamalanomics since Vice 

President Harris assumed office in 2021; 

Whereas, as of August 2024, chicken is up 24.7 percent since 

Harris took office in 2021;
