This is from The Hill.
The Hill ran a piece this week saying that affordability is the most powerful issue in American politics.

I'm talking about groceries, rent, childcare, healthcare.
People are feeling squeezed right now from every single direction.

Blame the immigrants.
Blame the visas.

Fixed with policy, not slogans.
People who can earn a living wage, which is something that actually Democrats talk about.
