Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., denied on Sunday that the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act would increase taxes for Americans amid a period of high inflation possibly a recession.\"Fox News Sunday\" host Mike Emanuel asked Cardin if he was concerned even after Sen. Joe Machin, D-W. Va., once said that a recession is the wrong time to raise taxes, noting how economists warned that more spending by the government could aggravate supply chain issues seen over the past year. \"We\'re not raising taxes what we\'re doing, in fact, we\'re reducing the deficit,\" Cardin said. \"So, we\'re actually taking money out of the economy. So that\'s good news for the inflation, and we\'re dealing with the cost centers that typical families are facing in health care and energy costs. So this should be helpful for American families, and it should be helpful for our economy, and it will help us with inflation.\" The bill includes $80 billion to ramp up enforcement at the Internal Revenue Service.
