Just one week into the war with Iran, Alejandra Y Castillo, former US Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development, shares what we can expect to be affected by the cost increases.

Making it harder to cancel a subscription can boost corporate revenues by over 200%. Americans overwhelmingly support bans on hidden or extra fees, and policymakers should act to protect families and restore trust.

"Right now, there are more children in shelters than there are seats in Yankee Stadium. This is not a program to cut back on." — Christine Quinn explains without CityFHEPS vouchers, more than half of families cycle back into NYC shelters, driving up costs and harming kids in the process.

Higher costs from Trump's war with Iran aren't going away. @gbenga-ajilore.bsky.social says disruptions to key inputs like fertilizer will push up food costs. Even if conditions improve, Americans should expect a slow return to normal and continued high prices.

@mnegron01.bsky.social: Small businesses have faced higher costs for over a year due to Trump's reckless trade policies. Now, the administration is placing the burden on U.S. importers to get the refund they are owed, with smaller businesses and consumers unlikely to see a dime in refunds.

Julie Brinn Siegel on @dakotanewsnow.com: Trump’s DOGE cuts have left IRS staffing at a historic low. With a third of senior managers gone and the elimination of IRS-run filing tools, families are now facing longer wait times, higher costs, and increased scam risks.

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."

Trump’s war with Iran is making life more unaffordable for working families. The war has driven the fastest gas spike in years, adding to already higher costs for groceries, rent, and health care. Rohit Chopra: "Every single part of their life is getting more expensive."

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.

Trump’s war with Iran is hitting families and local communities hard. @katenrg.bsky.social says rising fuel and food costs make it harder for food banks to operate, even as more families turn to them for support.

Washington has broken a promise to TSA workers.  They've missed rent, medical bills, and struggled to put food on the table for six weeks—all while keeping our airports safe. Backpay won't make them whole. Republicans must stop playing political games with our livelihoods.

The Iranian people are showing extraordinary courage as they stand up to a brutal and determined regime. They are living the Live Free or Die spirit that I see in NH every day. But if the President decides to use military force and put lives at risk, he must come to the Congress first.
