Affordable Cost of Living

Soaring inflation is hitting families and businesses alike. Essentials like groceries, housing, and gas remain significantly more expensive than before the pandemic. This isn’t just about economic policy; it’s about ensuring that families can put food on the table and that small businesses can continue to be the lifeblood of our communities.

Small Business in Crisis

Rising inflation means higher costs for materials, wages, and loans. With shrinking margins and limited financing options, many small businesses are fighting to survive - threatening local economies and the communities they sustain.
What's at Stake?

The American family and the American small business are interconnected pillars of our economy. One cannot thrive without the other. When families can’t afford to live, and small businesses can’t afford to operate, the entire nation’s prosperity is at risk.
What We Need

We call on elected officials to offer clear, actionable solutions to reduce the cost of living. This is more than policy - it’s about putting food on the table and keeping the doors of Main Street America open.
