Over four years, the Biden Administration’s runaway spending handed working families and job creators the worst inflation in four decades. Righting the ship will require a steady hand and deep expertise. The President-elect was right to turn to Mr. Bessent to lead the Treasury Department through this vital work.”###PrintEmailTweetPreviousTHE NEWSROOMSENATE RESOURCESABOUT LEADER McCONNELLFacebookTwitterInstagram
