Val Hoyle (OR-04) released the following statement in response to a new analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) finding that the war in Iran has directly cost the United States roughly $40 billion.\n\n\u201cToday is the 200th day of the President\u2019s illegal and immoral war with Iran. It isn\u2019t just unpopular, it\u2019s expensive,\u201d said Rep. Hoyle. \u201cAs costs continue to rise the American people are footing the $40 billion bill. Despite this, House Republicans are calling it quits and sending us home today. It\u2019s unconscionable that we are being sent home as the American people continue to pay the price.\u201d\n\nBACKGROUND\n\nThe war with Iran is increasing what families pay for gas, utilities, transportation and other goods and services. The CBO expects the war to add roughly 0.5 percentage points to inflation in the first quarter of 2027. Inflation has already spiked by 2.3% in the second quarter of 2026 .", 1, "2026-09-17T09:52:05Z", "2026-09-17T09:53:00Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://hoyle.house.gov/media/press-releases/200-days-and-40-billion-later"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.735177356749773, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
