Imagine lower utility bills instead of corporate tax giveaways. Imagine affordable child care instead of loopholes for the ultrawealthy. Imagine a federal government that invested in people as much as it invests in protecting billionaire wealth. Pennsylvanians deserve a brighter future.

Trump’s inflation is hurting Amanda and her family in nearly every part of her life. ​ From spending almost $100 on gas each week to nearly doubled electricity bills, the reality is hitting her family hard. Her EBT benefits were also reduced, making groceries even harder to afford.

Lashonda is a mother of six children and works hard to provide for them. Trump’s inflation has made it harder for Pennsylvanians like her to afford the basics like gas and groceries, especially in the past few months.

Not only are higher gas prices making it more difficult for Mikyia to afford the basic necessities, but she’s also had to reconsider her traditional beach vacation. She’s not the only Pennsylvanian stuck making disappointing decisions this summer.

Asia is having a hard time affording things she needs and sticking to her budget. When Trump said, “I love the inflation,” it stung for Pennsylvanians like her because she already needs extra help affording the basics like gas and groceries.

Pennsylvanians like Caila are rearranging their summer plans to have fun at home instead of vacationing out of town thanks to Trump’s higher gas prices.

Working Pennsylvanians like Nerissa can’t afford the basics like gas, healthcare, and groceries thanks to inflation. Like he already told us, Trump loves it.

Pennsylvanians need lower grocery bills, not deeper cuts to programs that help put food on the table. While costs keep rising, politicians shouldn't make it even harder for parents and seniors to afford a meal.

Freedom is more than a slogan. It’s the freedom to vote. To earn a decent living. To afford a home, health care, and a future. As America approaches 250 years, people aren’t asking for special treatment. They’re asking for a fair shot.

For 250 years, Pennsylvanians have fought to make our democracy stronger. Freedom isn’t making people jump through more hoops. Freedom means every Pennsylvanian can make their voice heard.

The price of groceries is still too high. Rent is still due. Child care costs a fortune. Instead of focusing on lowering costs for working Pennsylvanians, Trump is focused on building monuments to himself and a massive White House Ballroom.

While working Pennsylvanians pay their taxes, billionaires and giant corporations get handouts to avoid theirs. The problem isn’t that working families get too much. It’s that billionaires pay too little.

Pennsylvanians are worried about paying rent, buying groceries, and affording their next prescription. Trump doesn’t want to make their lives better, he just wants to make it harder for them to vote.

As Trump is set to visit the Mack Trucks facility in the Lehigh Valley today...

BETHLEHEM: Join our friends to hear directly from special guests and members of Congress fighting for working families on how Republican policies threaten working Pennsylvanians. Bring your questions to the Progress for the People Town Hall in Bethlehem, PA on June 18 5:30PM.

Rising gas prices are making it hard for college students like Sanaii to travel this summer. Even carpooling in a bigger car means spending more. Bigger car = bigger tank. They’re making tough choices in order to stretch their summer paychecks.

Like Ella points out, the only thing standing in the way of legalizing adult-use recreational cannabis in Pennsylvania and billions of dollars in revenue is the State Senate GOP majority.

Join us LIVE on 6/17 at 12PM with Mayor Sam Bigham, Project 26 PA, & @onepennsylvania.bsky.social to learn what we can do to fight back. As young Pennsylvanians start their summer & begin adulthood, the reality of the Republican affordability crisis is hitting hard. It doesn't have to be this way.

Kim is upset about the rising gas prices. She can’t take her regular trip to the beach and knows exactly why – Republicans don’t care about regular Pennsylvanians.

Inflation is reaching record highs, and everyday costs are becoming out of reach for Pennsylvanians. Our lives shouldn’t be this hard, but Trump loves it.

What is the affordability crisis, and how is it affecting your life? Tune in live all summer long as we break down the issues from gas prices to utility bills to back-to-school costs. We’ll hear from folks on the ground and elected officials to learn what we can do to fight back.

April has had to cancel family vacations because of Trump’s high gas prices. Like many Pennsylvanians, she hoped to cool off with her kids at the beach, and is now dreading the summer.

High gas prices are ruining Alicia’s summer. She would love to take a trip down the shore like she usually does. Thanks to Trump’s high gas prices, filling up her tank costs about $50-60, and who has the money for that?

Over the past 20 years, the cost of living has continued to rise, but wages have not. Kelli has it right: if Pennsylvania wants to keep up with our neighbors, we need to raise our minimum wage.

Because of rising gas prices, Marcia has had to cut back on visiting her family. Thanks to Trump’s unnecessary war in Iran, this is the reality for far too many Pennsylvanians.

Pennsylvania stands to gain over $1 billion in revenue by legalizing adult-use recreational marijuana. Virginia would like to see us join our neighbors in legalizing it and using the funds to repair our roadways and fund our schools.

As Carrie points out, legalizing adult-use recreational marijuana could fund our underfunded schools and provide critical resources to communities in need. It’s time Pennsylvania kept up with neighboring states.

Cat has two suggestions: legalize adult-use recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania to bring in more revenue, and pass the Governor’s budget on time.
