On Energy & Oil: Support an all-of-the-above domestic energy strategy

On high gas prices: "We could help increase supply and cuts costs at the pump. But instead, President Biden chooses our foreign adversaries for assistance. The United States has the resources, the expertise and the domestic demand to be an energy-independent nation, and Kansas has the opportunity to be a participant in that." Moran noted that a more enduring and affordable solution would be for the President to support an "all-of-the-above domestic energy strategy."

On Tax Reform: Inflation Reduction Act will raise taxes on working families

[On newly-passed spending bill]: "The idea that spending more money and increasing taxes will be helpful in combating inflation is false and confirmed by the Congressional Budget Office. Rather than taking steps to curb spending and expand energy production, the so-called Inflation Reduction Act will raise taxes on small businesses and working families, including by hiring 87,000 more IRS agents to target more Americans with tax audits."

On Principles & Values: Biden won in 2020, but no inquiry into Jan. 6

[Democratic opponent Mark] Holland said U.S. senators from Kansas ought declare in clear language President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election to President Joe Biden. Holland said dozens of lawsuits were filed, but no clear evidence of election fraud has been uncovered. "What we're seeing right now is this long-play grief cycle that is born because the leaders in the Republican Party have refused to have the courage to look people in the eye and tell them the plain truth," Holland said. "I'm just as plainspoken preacher, and I'm just going to tell people the truth. We need the courage to tell people the truth, even an unpopular truth or a truth they don't want to hear."

Moran has said Biden won the 2020 national election and it would be wrong for Congress to not certify the Electoral College vote. He denounced the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol, but opposed formation of an independent inquiry into violence precipitated by a rally led by Trump.
