Tariffs raised school supply costs by 7.3% this year.
For Michele, who runs a small NJ preschool, that means higher prices on paint, paper, glue — even crayons.

Congressman Kean voted for the tariffs driving up those costs.

🎥 Hear directly from Michele.

When patients can’t afford insulin, they risk their lives.

So why did Senator Susan Collins take nearly $500,000 from the drug industry, then vote against capping insulin costs and letting Medicare negotiate lower prices?

Mainers deserve leaders who protect our health care, not Big Pharma profits.

Tina’s 102-year-old mom, Dee, can live independently because of Medicaid.

Mike Lawler voted to cut it.Why? To give billionaires another tax break.

New Yorkers deserve better. Watch the new ad and take action. 👇

Republicans in Congress Ring in the New Year By Letting Health Care Costs Soar - Unrig Our Economy Washington D.C — Republicans in Congress ended 2025 by throwing 22 million Americans’ health care in jeopardy. Now, as we ring in 2026, will they do an about-face and stand with their constituents, or...

It’s a new year, and Republicans in Congress are *still* letting health care costs skyrocket for millions of families.

But there’s still time to do the right thing.
Republicans can vote to restore the ACA tax credits and finally stand up for their constituents—not billionaires.

If you can’t afford groceries remember that Trump is spending:

$230M for a settlement
$300M for a gold ballroom
$1B to upgrade the private jet he got as a bribe
$20B to bail out Argentina

How much has your grocery bill gone up in the past year? 👀

And it's not just food - this year’s most popular holiday items rose an average of 26% since last year thanks to Trump’s economic agenda.

As families plan their holiday meals, we’re tracking the cost of what’s on the table. Our grocery price tracker is updated, now including pork, corn, & steak.

Republicans in Congress keep claiming prices are falling.
Our bills say otherwise.

We’ve got the receipts.

Republicans are taking food assistance from families, seniors, and veterans across the country while giving billionaires tax breaks.

1 in 8 Americans depend on SNAP.

No one should go hungry in the wealthiest nation on Earth. This is an American issue.

The array seen at close range shows a sign in front reading, "In Nevada, 496,848 people rely on snap food assistance." The wording flanks an illustration of a cooked turkey in a pot. In the next row back, a similar sign can be seen for Mississippi (357,042) and farther back, Colorado, and so on.

🤡 Congressional Republicans just shut the government down because they want you paying more for health care — while they help the rich get even richer.

📈 Congressional Republicans' tariff policy is causing food prices to skyrocket, hurting Americans who are already struggling.

You deserve food on the table, food you can afford.

The GOP might say otherwise, but we've got the receipts - and they're getting expensive.

New tariffs snap into effect, raising import taxes to highest level since Great Depression A wide variety of products will be affected, from appliances made in the European Union to autos from Japan to food, furniture, toys and more.

✂️Congressional Republicans’ cuts to SNAP will take food off the plates of families who are already at risk of going hungry.

📈Even with SNAP, food costs have increased substantially since January – and with the GOP’s new tariffs, they’ll continue to go up for working families.
