Families are paying $2,500 more due to Trump’s tariffs.
Households are spending $740 more on gas due to Trump’s war in Iran.

Are we great again yet?

Trump promised to lower costs. Instead, his policies are making life more unaffordable for working people across the country.
Trump's war in Iran has cost taxpayers at least $40 BILLION.
Funny how there’s always money for war, but never enough for health care, childcare, or food assistance.
Because of President Trump’s reckless war:
Gas prices are up.
Energy bills are up.
Families are paying more for groceries, farmers are paying more for fertilizer, and consumers are paying more for shipping.
Once again, it's the American people footing the bill.
The Trump administration has exploited millions of Americans’ personal data through legal loopholes. There must be accountability.
The Chairs of CAPAC, @hispaniccaucus.bsky.social, and @usprogressives.bsky.social led 53 members of Congress in demanding protection for Americans’ privacy rights.
Section 702 of FISA violates the 4th Amendment—full stop. That’s why I joined my colleagues in demanding a course correction. We can protect our country without infringing on constitutional rights.
Today is Tax Day.
President Trump promised working families an extra $1,000 in tax refunds.
Instead, he gave billionaires tax breaks while everyday Americans get hit with rising prices across the board.
Proof that he’s only looking out for his ultrawealthy donors.
Five years ago, a gunman murdered eight people—including four members of the Sikh community—at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis.
Our hearts are with all whose lives were changed forever by this horrific tragedy. We must end the scourge of gun violence once and for all.
Happy Vaisakhi! As a member of @capac.house.gov, I’m proud to represent a vibrant Sikh community in NV-03 and hope this joyous celebration brings peace, happiness, and prosperity to you and your family.
Happy Vaisakhi! May this special day inspire us to carry forward the Sikh values of service, unity, and justice.
As South and Southeast Asian communities across the country and around the world gather to welcome the new year, CAPAC wishes those celebrating good health and fortune in the year ahead! ✨
I remain committed to fighting for opportunity, dignity, and equity for all women in the workplace and beyond.
As a member of @demwomencaucus.bsky.social and @capac.house.gov, I'm committed to closing the pay gap and ensuring all Americans are paid fairly. #AANHPIEqualPay (2/2)
Congressional Republicans need to come back from vacation and vote to end this war.
President Trump says there is not enough money for childcare or health care, but somehow there is enough for war.
His new budget asks for $1.5 trillion for foreign wars, a 28% increase from last year. But there’s no money for health care? The math isn’t mathing.
Asian Americans account for more than half of all hepatitis B cases while Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders are 5x more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes.
This National Minority Health Month, we recommit to addressing health disparities facing AANHPI communities.
President Trump promised to lower costs on day one.
He promised to end foreign wars.
He promised to end inflation.
He promised to slash energy prices by half.
He promised to protect Medicare and Medicaid.
He lied. Every. Single. Time.
Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander women earned 83 cents for every dollar that white, non-Hispanic men made in the U.S. last year.
This AANHPI Women’s Equal Pay Day, we recommit to fighting for fair wages, opportunity and equality for women in the workplace.
Did you know @repsuhas.bsky.social was serving his community long before Congress?
Hear about his journey in our latest Spill the Tea episode. ⬇️
Trump woke up this morning threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people.
We should be back in DC RIGHT NOW to stop this deranged madman from blowing up the world. Does this seem urgent to you, Speaker Johnson? How can you sleep at night??

Donald Trump just threatened to unilaterally destroy an entire civilization.
Is there genuinely no limit to what Republicans will allow this unhinged, unwell man to do?
Congress must come back to Washington to rein in this dangerous behavior immediately.
Calling for the erasure of a civilization is dangerous and unhinged coming from any leader, let alone an American President. It is not a tactic. It is not a joke.
America is not at war with the Iranian people. (1/2)
Goodbye and good riddance to Pam Bondi.
ICE detained a Laotian refugee with cancer. He was denied medical treatment and forced to miss chemotherapy. Now he is spending his final days in hospice.
Every time you think this administration can’t go lower, they prove you wrong. No one deserves this.
Every American, no matter what language they speak, should have access to federal programs and services.
At a time when federal language access is under attack, CAPAC and CHC stand united in ensuring everyone can fully participate in our economy and democracy.
The death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, the Rohingya refugee abandoned by Border Patrol in frigid temperatures, was ruled as a homicide.
He suffered dehydration and hypothermia before he passed away.
Every person involved in the death of Mr. Shah Alam must be held accountable.
One year ago, Trump announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs.
A year later, families are paying higher prices for groceries and everyday goods. Small businesses are shuttering their doors.
So much for lowering costs.
