Grocery prices in Alaska have gone from bad to apocalyptic.

Living at the end of the supply chain has always meant paying more. But Alaska families have never struggled this hard just to put food on the table.

We need a fighter in DC working day and night to bring costs down.

I can’t imagine living on a street named after a known rapist/pedophile.
I’d do a street fundraiser/party so people could recuperate their costs & inconvenience to change the name. Whatever it takes.

Illinois farmers don’t want a handout — they want a fair shot at making a buck.

They want stable markets and reasonable input costs. They want a chance to make a living.

I’m proud to have their backs and give them the support they deserve.

Schatz, Biden had the mess from Trump 45 to clean up and COVID costs.
The costs were NEVER higher during Biden!

Trump falls asleep, slurs words, and talks foolishness. Trump has started more wars than any other POTUS. The corruption, tariffs, cost of living, dismantling of healthcare, Medicare, etc

whether folks want to admit it or not, we are living through another wave of collective depression.

living costs, unemployment, daily news, etc. it adds up, & dwells in the mind for hours— days, even.

be gentle with one another. check in. help where you can, & just remind someone that you care. 💜

A lot of what the author seems pressed about is really just time poor, stressed parents doing their best - and the solution to that is to lift incomes, reduce living costs, and wind back capitalist profiteering.

These do not appear to be the solutions offered 🙄

A new study shows that state abortion bans lead to higher insurance costs in those states. Increased birth rates with more pregnancy-related complications, and more emergencies and infant and maternal deaths, generate costs that are passed on to families. Black and Hispanic women are most affected.
