We are paying 6.3% more for grocery basket goods while shelling out about 50% more to fuel our cars. On top of this, families face severe shortages of staples like baby formula, meat and poultry, and paper goods — leaving many scrambling to meet the most basic dietary and sanitary needs.
We can’t swallow higher prices and make hard choices indefinitely. Washington’s inflationary policies landed us here, and we need Washington to move out of the way.
