Much of this discontent stems from Washington Democrats’ reliance on failed ‘stimulus’ policies over responsible, long-term solutions to address the key cost-of-living issues facing families and small businesses:

	Democrats who run Washington	Republicans
High gas prices	No plan.	Republicans’ American Energy Initiative is focused on stopping government policies that drive up energy prices and removing barriers to job-creating energy production.
Skyrocketing health care costs	No plan.	Republicans have voted to repeal the job-crushing health care law, and are working to replace it with common-sense reforms to lower costs and protect jobs.
Cost of creating jobs	No plan.	Republicans’ Plan for America’s Job Creators builds on the Pledge to America with measures designed to get government out of the way so our economy can get back to creating jobs.
Cost of government	No plan.	Republicans’ Path to Prosperity budget pays down our debt over time and lays the foundation for long-term private-sector job growth.
