Buttigieg Says Democrats Are Having A Hard Time Campaigning Because They've Been Too Successful
 [DC] Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said Sunday while on ABC’s "This Week" that Democrats are actually having a difficult time campaigning because they’ve been too successful.Buttigieg told host George Stephanopoulos Democrats "are proud" of their many "accomplishments" such as the American Rescue Plan. "Remember, we have our challenges right now, but when the president took office, we were facing an economy that was at risk of going into freefall. The American Rescue Plan stopped that, and it went directly into easing the burden for Americans with those tax benefits that Americans got," Buttigieg said. "I do think we run the risk — because there have been so many accomplishments — right, the CHIPS Act which is bringing manufacturing back to the United States, the PACT Act, getting veterans the benefits they deserve, of course the infrastructure bill, the Inflation Reduction Act, on top of that American Rescue plan ... in some ways having achieved so much legislatively makes it hard to talk about it all at once because there are just so many accomplishments."
