Pennsylvania 8th Congressional District Debate

Published | Video Starts at 15:25

Mr. Bognett and Mr. Carai, do you have a rebuttal? 30 seconds. Sure. This will not be the last of the falsehoods. You were here. Out of my opponent's mouth this evening. One of the reasons I supported the Inflation Reduction act is that it will reduce the deficit by $200 billion this decade. All of that money can go towards shoring up Social Security, and that's what we intend for it to do. Thank you, Mr. Cartwright. Well, let's move on to the second question. (15:25–15:34)
