What we have now is a two-tiered society with a wealthy few at the top and the vast majority of Americans struggling to make ends meet. It’s corrosive to our economy and democracy.

New data shows that Donald Trump’s economic policies have driven up prices this year’s holiday season by 26%. Americans are paying the price for Donald Trump’s policies.

Energy bills have increased 13% since Trump took office. Families have paid an extra $1,200 on goods this year because of his tariffs. Popular holiday gifts are 26% more expensive this year compared to 2024. Remember this as Trump calls affordability a "hoax" and a "con job."
