Facing the aftermath of the January 30th government shutdown, Lorelei Salas analyzes how tense Senate negotiations are shifting priorities, delaying essential relief, and injecting uncertainty that slows investment and hiring.

The average Illinois household has paid nearly $2,600 more for goods since Trump took office, and costs continue to rise. @mnegron01.bsky.social joined @fox32chicago.bsky.social to explain how Trump’s tariffs and war are driving up costs across the economy and squeezing Americans’ wallets.

As families across the country face high electricity costs, credit card debt, and rising prices for basic goods, the conflict in Iran continues to affect household budgets. Economics expert Alfredo Romero breaks it down.

"Consumers are really strapped. They're seeing prices rise for utilities, gasoline, food, and premiums for health care." Kitty Richards explains how the fallout from Trump's reckless policies and the GOP budget law is squeezing household budgets and stalling economic growth.

Families have overpaid for everyday goods because of Trump’s tariffs for over a year. Instead of doubling down & inflicting more harm, the administration should give consumers their money back & pursue a trade agenda that actually benefits American workers & businesses. @alexsjacquez.bsky.social

@michaelslinden.bsky.social: The IRS is underfunded and understaffed. That means longer waits, slower refunds, and less help if something goes wrong. The Trump administration also ended the free tax filing program, Direct File, forcing taxpayers to pay private companies to file their taxes.

@genesperling.bsky.social: President Trump is doubling down on tariffs, risking even higher prices, weaker job growth, and more economic uncertainty instead of prioritizing consumers, small businesses, and long-term growth.

Americans have paid $16B more at the pump since Trump’s war with Iran began. Kitty Richards joined ABC News Live to break down higher costs across the economy as consumer sentiment hits new lows. "Anything that requires fuel or transportation is gonna see a price increase."

Ante las secuelas del cierre gubernamental, Lorelei Salas analiza cómo las tensas negociaciones en el Senado están cambiando prioridades, retrasando ayuda esencial e introduciendo incertidumbre que frena la inversión y la contratación.

Even if the war ended tomorrow, the price hikes wouldn’t. @bharatramamurti.bsky.social explains how oil shocks impact supply chains and take months to work through the economy — meaning Trump’s war with Iran will keep driving up costs for American families well into the summer.
