WASHINGTON, D.C.—U.S. Representative Austin Scott (GA-08) today released the following statement in response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address.

“President Biden has failed the American people, and his address tonight failed to answer how he plans to rectify his many crises. Under his administration, American’s pocketbooks have taken a major hit with inflation at a 40 year high, our energy independence is ruined with a heavy reliance on corrupt foreign oil, there are more deadly drugs coming over our southern border than ever before, and our international credibility and national security are weakened. I hope that Biden takes responsibility for his actions and works to restore our nation’s security, energy independence, and economy.”
