There is a meme circulating around Facebook right now about Democrats voting against the 2.8% Cost of living increase. Normally, here at inflationData we try to avoid politics unless it directly relates to inflation, or our other major topics covered. But in this case I feel compelled to address this issue.

The quick answer is that this is “NOT TRUE”. However, if the MEME was phrased slightly differently it would be “TECHNICALLY TRUE”.
