@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialTime to head to the pumpkin patch! Which affordability pumpkin are you picking?
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialToday is National Child Health Day! Children are our future, which is why we continue to fight for affordable healthcare and childcare in Virginia!
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialThis week, we met in Yorktown to address the rising cost of living. We called on Rep. Rob Wittman to address the growing costs of childcare, housing, and groceries as well as cuts to essential benefits that are hurting working families, seniors and children.
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialOn Monday, we joined with Reset Inc. to call for action on affordability. As rising costs make it harder for working families to afford groceries and childcare, we need leaders who will put Virginians first.

@economicsecurity.usReposted by @teamfreedomva.bsky.socialLast year, Republicans gutted funding for food aid and healthcare programs that working folks rely on, just to give rich donors a tax cut.
Now, millions of families are skipping the doctor and sending kids to school with empty stomachs.
It's time to hold the GOP accountable.

@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialGas is $4/gallon right now, up more than $1/gallon since last summer. With surges like this, many Americans are turning to “buy now, pay later” services like Afterpay to cover the bills, We shouldn't have to take out loans to cover the essentials.
@economicsecurity.usReposted by @teamfreedomva.bsky.socialChildcare now costs more than college in every state, and costs more than a mortgage in nearly every state.
Trump and Republicans campaigned on lowering costs for young families, but failed to do anything about their single biggest budget line item.
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialDATE CHANGE: This event has moved to TOMORROW, Wednesday, September 30th. We hope to see you there!

@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialEverything’s gotten more expensive since 2020, especially electric bills. Today, we're paying almost 50% more for the same amount of electricity we used then. Our bills will keep rising unless our leaders take action.
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialLast week, we partnered with Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy and the National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare to host an affordability roundtable with former Representative and candidate Elaine Luria at local Virginia Beach business Sundae Scoops.
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialYou’re not imagining it. Everything on your plate really IS way more expensive today than it was a few years ago. Our leaders should be lowering food prices. Instead, Congress cut SNAP, taking food assistance away from millions of hungry Americans and raising grocery costs even more.
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialRep. Rob Wittman promised to help families and lower costs. Instead, she cut taxes for billionaires and big corporations, shredded our social safety net, and raised the cost of healthcare, electricity, gas, food, and more.
Now, we’ve got the receipt to prove it.
@economicsecurity.usReposted by @teamfreedomva.bsky.socialBetween premiums, co-pays, and deductibles, healthcare costs too much and insurance is too hard to navigate.
Instead of fixing it, Trump and Republicans cut taxes for rich insurance CEOs and made coverage even MORE expensive for everyone.
@teamfreedomva.bsky.socialConsumer sentiment is dropping in Virginia: what does this mean for the economy?
