Lower costs. End the chaos. Eliminate the corruption.

It’s a new day, and we’ve got a lot of work to do.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Let's get to work.

[Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan @RepMcClellan]

Does Halloween seem more expensive this year? There’s a reason for that.

[Rep. Nadler @RepJerryNadler]

Nothing is safe in Trump’s ghastly economy. His tariffs, illegal war, and soaring inflation have even made the cost of candy skyrocket. This Halloween, Trump is offering more tricks than treats to our kids.

[Rep. Lauren Underwood @RepUnderwood]

Everything is more expensive in Trump’s economy. Since he took office, families in northern Illinois have spent an additional:
➡️$1,277 on housing costs like rent and mortgage payments since the start of the Iran war
➡️$310 for groceries
➡️$212 on electricity
➡️$885 on gas since the start of the Iran war

[Congresswoman Nikema Williams @RepNikema]

158 days of gas above $4. A new record.

Since Trump’s reckless war in Iran began, the average American household has paid an extra $2,000 in costs.

You feel it at the pump, at the checkout line, and every time you sit down to try to make your monthly budget work. Working families in the #FightingFifth and beyond shouldn’t have to pay the price for this administration’s reckless decisions.

[Rep. John Larson @RepJohnLarson]

Donald Trump promised to bring down prices on Day One. Gas has been over $4/gallon for 158 days, a new record.

The President might not care, but families struggling to make ends meet sure do. Congress needs to end his illegal war in Iran and suspend the gas tax NOW.

[Judy Chu @RepJudyChu]

Gas prices have topped $4 a gallon nationally for a record 158 days this year. Trump's war in Iran has cost American households $2,000 each. Inflation hit a 4-month high last month.

Nearly two years into Trump's second term, with Republicans controlling the House & Senate, this is the economic reality facing American families.

[Rep. Gwen Moore @RepGwenMoore]

You can thank Donald Trump and his rubber-stamps in Congress and their war of choice for jacking up gas, diesel and utility costs.

[Rep. Frank Pallone @FrankPallone]

What would you do if you had $2000 extra in your pocket? Thanks to Trump's illegal Iran War, we'll never know.

Every day this war continues is another day that Trump loots the American public for his war of choice.

[Rep. Pete Aguilar @RepPeteAguilar]

Today is day 158 of gas above $4.

Americans are paying for Trump’s reckless war of choice every time they fill up their tank.

[John Garamendi @RepGaramendi]

Trump promised to bring prices down on Day One. It’s Day 168 of $6 gas in California because of President Trump’s reckless war of choice in Iran.

Republicans repeatedly voted to prolong the war, and you’re paying for it at the pump.

Republicans’ war, your wallet.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Trump promised to lower costs and end inflation on day one.

The exact opposite has happened.

This president has been a total failure.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Thank a Republican.

[Rep. Jason Crow @RepJasonCrow]

158 days with gas above $4—the most ever in one year.

Working families are paying the price for Donald Trump’s reckless war with Iran.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Donald Trump said his reckless war with Iran would last weeks.

It’s been SIX MONTHS.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Endless cash for foreign wars and White House vanity projects.

No money for healthcare or childcare.

This is Trump’s America.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Chaos and corruption. 

Those are the only things this administration is capable of.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Thankful for the legendary life, leadership and legacy of the great John Lewis.

The right to vote is sacred to the integrity of our democracy.

We will never yield it.
