John,
I am sure that you agree that grocery shopping, stopping for gas, and paying your heating bills have been causing sticker shock and a severe strain on our pocketbooks.
The cost of meat, produce, coffee, cereal, gasoline, electricity, and everything else is skyrocketing at a near-record pace.
These rising costs are hitting Americans from all backgrounds hard, but the government at all levels has completely failed to slow down the unsustainable rate of inflation.
In fact, they’re making some food harder to get than ever.
California’s Proposition 12, which just went into effect, severely restricts the way pigs have been raised and pork has been sold for decades.
Not only will these new regulations drive up already high prices and threaten the availability of pork throughout the state of California, but the law also applies to pork producers outside California who are supplying their product within the state.
So even suppliers who don’t live and vote in California are losing business because of government mismanagement there.
These are exactly the kind of crushing regulations that Citizens Against Government Waste is fighting to put an end to so that you can once again afford food for your family, gas for your car, and energy for your home.
This is the kind of waste and abuse that hurts you personally, and the government does not care.
And inflation is so high that any increase in your hard-earned salary or retirement income cannot keep pace.
John, it makes me sick.
We’re going to keep working to put an end to waste like this, but we can’t do it without you on our team.
Keep an eye out for more updates and opportunities for feedback in your inbox.
Thank you for your continuing support of CAGW.
Sincerely,
Tom Schatz
