President Trump's across-the-board tariffs will drive up prices on everything from electricity to groceries and appliances—costing families over $2,000 a year. At a time when Americans are already struggling with rising costs, these tariffs will only make things worse.

Across Minnesota, gas prices are over $4 a gallon. Americans are already dealing with high everyday costs, and this administration’s unilateral war with Iran is only making it worse — and it has to stop.

Farmers are hurting. Inflation is squeezing every worker. And tariffs are making it worse. We can’t print enough money to paper over bad policy.

Americans are worried about grocery bills, health care costs, and electric bills. In a nearly two-hour speech, the President spent just a few minutes on affordability — and offered no real plan to lower costs for Americans.

It's simple. The president has not delivered on his promise to lower prices. In fact, his actions are making things worse. Americans are still struggling, and Trump's empty rhetoric won’t pay your bills. And now he wants to cut healthcare for millions of Americans, attacking programs like Medicare in order to give larger tax cuts to billionaires.

.Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D.'s Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act will cut costs for 100% of Americans. It will reduce Obamacare premiums, expand choices for families and small businesses, and lower drug prices. While Dems want to bail out insurers, we’re lowering costs for families.

Cutting costs was the promise. Instead, corruption, chaos, and prices are up. I’m standing up for Americans who are looking to us to lower costs on everything from prescription drugs to housing and child care.

DEMOCRATS DON'T WANT AMERICANS TO KNOW THIS... But if and when the federal gas tax is suspended and it eases prices at the pump, Americans will see that LOWER TAXES makes things MORE AFFORDABLE. Will dems vote AGAINST making gas more affordable? Dems are the party of high taxes. They are NOT the party of "affordability!"

California will continue counting ballots for the Governor’s race Reports are showing turnout was extremely low, only about 30-40% Steve Hilton and Xavier Becerra are still expected to be the winners, even with only 55% of the vote counted (as of right now) Steve Hilton visited the state capitol and said the real campaign starts now. He wants to make his main goal to help working families and small businesses with California’s high cost of living I found Steve Hilton’s 5 main campaign promises 1. Tax cuts for residents. No state income tax on earnings under $100,000, working to raise that threshold, plus lower overall taxes to improve affordability. 2. Fix The Housing Crisis by building more single-family homes, reduce regulations and fees, and restore the California Dream of homeownership for families 3. Lower Everyday Costs by cutting gas prices, expand oil production, reduce electricity and energy costs, and tackle high cost of living for families and small businesses 4. Ensure 100% of students meet math and English standards by 3rd grade, with phonics-based reforms and accountability. 5. Cut Government Waste & Fraud by cracking down on fraud in programs like Medi-Cal and homelessness spending to save billions and reduce overall spending The choice is so obvious California

Every time Americans complain your cost of living is too high. Remember this: War spending drastically raises the cost of living through massive government budget shifts, increased taxes, soaring energy/food prices due to supply chain disruptions, and direct economic damage, leading to higher utility costs, food inflation, housing cost spikes, and reduced public services (health, education), ultimately burdening citizens with higher prices and lower quality of life
