The Trump administration’s tariff chaos, war, and attacks on affordable health care are fueling the worsening cost-of-living crisis. Thanks to the Trump administration’s policies, health care costs hit their new all-time-high this year. The president’s attacks on the Affordable Care Act have caused health premiums to skyrocket and hundreds of thousands of Georgians to lose their health insurance this year alone.
