Because of Trump and Republicans, Americans are paying more for EVERYTHING. Food, gas, utilities, healthcare. Republicans are bleeding Americans’ wallets dry.

Donald Trump has forced Americans to pay the price for his reckless and illegal war with Iran.  Spending more at the pump means families have to make tough decisions.  Rent or gas? Food or gas?  This is no way to live.

Remember: While Trump’s been in office, he’s tripled his net worth and has pocketed *at least* $2 billion dollars.

Translation: “My donors are making more money than they have ever made because of the fact that oil is so high.”
Trump: "Our country is making more money than it has ever made because of the fact that oil is so high"

America has a maternal mortality crisis. The health care cuts in the Republicans’ Big Ugly Law are making it worse. During the @ProtectOurCare “Sick of It” Bus Tour stop in Williamsburg, I explained how.

The President’s reckless war in Iran is keeping gas prices high, which drives up the cost of everything because of how much it costs to transport essential goods. It doesn’t have to be like this. He can end this and stop the economic pain Americans are feeling. nytimes.com/live/2026/10/14/…

163 days of promising to bring prices down and failing to deliver. We have now reached the most days in a year with gas prices above $4 a gallon in U.S. history. Trump’s Iran War continues to make life more expensive for Americans.

Under this Republican majority: Gas prices are up. Grocery prices are up. Healthcare costs are up. Life is more expensive. And they don’t have a plan to fix it.

$20 doesn’t get you as far as it used to – literally. And it’s all because Donald Trump and his cronies started a war with Iran, causing energy and gas prices to skyrocket and making life at home unaffordable. It is past time for this illegal war to end.

I’ve never had a constituent ask for more robocalls. Yet the FCC is considering letting political robocallers reach your cellphone without your permission, including with AI voices. Making it easier to deceive voters weeks before an election is indefensible. apnews.com/article/fcc-polit…

Trump's "logic" behind lifting sanctions was to lower diesel prices. But they're still rising—and Putin is only getting richer. America isn't one of Trump's failed casinos. Our national security can never be a bargaining chip for political expediency or approval ratings.

Inflation jumped again in September, outpacing what experts expected. Gas prices have remained steadily above $4/gallon for 158 days consecutively—a new record!   Families cannot afford for this to continue. A reckless war in Iran and rampant corruption in Washington are crushing my neighbors, and I won’t stand for it.

While Trump continues to blame everyone but himself for rising prices, American families continue to struggle under the costs of his reckless tariffs and war of choice with Iran. bbc.com/news/articles/cwy8lx…

So you’re funding the Russian war against Ukraine because you *started* a losing war in Iran.
"Between our TOTAL CONTROL of the Strait of Hormuz, and this great announcement on Russian Energy, Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST! Lower prices for Americans, especially our Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority." - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

Amidst a cost-of-living crisis that forces millions to pay more for groceries, gas, health care, housing and more, nearly half of Virginia households now can’t get enough to eat. Food assistance organizations can’t meet the growing demand. Meanwhile, the Trump Administration and Congressional Republicans cut food assistance to fund tax breaks for billionaires and support a war of choice in Iran and tariff wars that continue to drive up costs.

Groceries and transportation are becoming increasingly unaffordable for New Jerseyans. Trump's tariffs and illegal Iran War have made prices worse in the last year. New Jerseyans are being priced out of our own state, and President Trump is to blame. nj.com/politics/2026/10/from…
