PolitiFact says: FEMA provides $750 assistance payments for essential supplies such as food, water and fuel. That assistance is not a loan that needs repaying, according to the agency and its spokespeople.
PolitiFact says: Republican Mike Rogers, a U.S. Senate candidate in Michigan, worked for AT&T when the company was working to sell Huawei devices in the U.S. But the company said he was not involved in that effort.

PolitiFact says: The inflation rate has fallen by more than two-thirds since the Inflation Reduction Act was passed in August 2022. The law was likely not the reason for inflation's easing, but it's wrong to say it made inflation worse.
FactCheck.org says: Harris was mostly correct in her description of Moody's Analytics, the Financial Times survey and the 16 Nobel laureates. But she is wrong about the Wharton analysis and exaggerates what Goldman Sachs said.
FactCheck.org says: Vice President Harris has said that she will not attempt to ban fracking if elected president in 2024. It’s also questionable that more than 300,000 Pennsylvania jobs “depend on fracking.”
