Grocery bills are rising due to tariffs. Congress has voted numerous times to support and continue the current tariff policies.

📚 Back-to-school costs are putting pressure on families. This weekend, we donated supplies to help our neighbors start the school year off right.
But @RepScottPerry’s reckless votes have cost PA families $3,900 more. Tell Rep. Perry: put families over billionaire tax breaks.
ICYMI: Scranton families joined Rep. Deluzio and care advocates to talk about the rising cost of care.
$77,792 for in-home care.
$28,083 for child care for 2 kids.
$13,793 in lost wages without paid leave.
Care shouldn’t be a luxury. PA families deserve better.
PA-10 residents took to the stage last night to show what it feels like to be drowning in costs. 🌊The avg. PA-10 household is paying $3,900 more for everyday necessities than a year ago, thanks to Scott Perry's votes.
Their message to Rep. Scott Perry: Throw us a lifeline.
🚨 NEPA families are sending an SOS.
Rising costs are squeezing family budgets. Families are working hard and still being forced into impossible choices. Tonight, we're coming together to demand an economy that puts families first.

New polling finds Republicans & Democrats across PA agree: they want lower health care costs.
They support:
💊 Lower drug prices
🏥 Restoring ACA tax credits
❤️ Protecting & expanding Medicaid
Reps. Mackenzie, Bresnahan & Perry should listen to their constituents.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our community dinner last week.
As prices continue to rise, families are bringing home less and less from the grocery store. We came together to break bread, share our stories, and call on @RepScottPerry to take action to lower costs!
Today through Sunday, attendees at the York State Fair will see that @RepScottPerry's votes have cost them $3,900+ more - from housing to groceries, utility bills and health care costs. 📈💸
Tell Rep. Perry, we can't afford his reckless votes: 202-225-5836

Going to the York Fair this weekend?
If so, you'll be seeing these Affordable Pa ads popping up on your phone highlighting how much more Pa families are spending up Trump and Scott Perry.

Pennsylvania families are looking for leaders who will lower costs—not make life more expensive. That’s why @AffordablePA has been holding Rob Bresnahan accountable and urging him to reverse course.

Gas is back above $4/gallon.
Before the Iran conflict: $2.98/gallon.
PAians were promised lower costs. Instead, Reps. Mackenzie, Bresnahan & Perry backed policies—including the Iran war—that left families paying more.
Tell them: stop raising costs and start delivering relief.
The average price for a gallon of gas hit $4, the second time it has reached that benchmark since the war in Iran disrupted global oil supplies cnn.it/4wciLTL
Electricity prices are up in PA:
⚡ PA-07: +10.1%
⚡ PA-08: +8.4%
⚡ PA-10: +8.8%
Reps. Mackenzie, Bresnahan, and Perry voted for a law expected to raise energy costs. Families deserve lower bills—not higher ones.
Pennsylvania families need affordable homes—not more roadblocks. Rep. Scott Perry voted against a bipartisan housing bill to help tackle the housing shortage. That's not putting working families first. pennsylvaniaindependent.com/…

“I am not reaching the work requirements set by people who don’t have to live by these rules," said Kearasten Jordan, a Lancaster resident who is struggling to access health care due to the Republican budget.

On Monday, for Medicaid Awareness Month, 90 constituents delivered nearly 200 petition signatures to @RepMackenzie’s offices in Bethlehem and Allentown, calling on him to stop taking our health care.
Today, constituents delivered a giant birthday cake to @RepBresnahan with notes calling him out for prioritizing tax breaks for billionaires over working PA’ians. Now that he’s a year older and wiser, we hope he will support policies that actually lower costs for NEPA families.
📈Gas prices in the South Central PA are over $4/gal. Attendees at last night’s York Revolution game saw how @RepScottPerry’s support for the Iran War is driving gas prices sky high. Rising fuel prices could cost households $740 more just in gas this year.
