President Trump promised he\u2019d bring their costs down on \u2018Day One,\u2019 but Wisconsin families can look at their bank accounts and see that is just not the case,\u201d said Senator Baldwin. \u201cPresident Trump\u2019s tariffs and war in Iran are raising costs on families, all while he is making deep cuts to programs that help Wisconsinites afford their health care, rent, and groceries.\u201d\n\nDespite President Trump\u2019s repeated pledges on the campaign trail that his administration would \u201cend inflation\u201d and bring down costs for families, Trump has instead caused costs to continue to rise significantly, including through his reckless tariffs and war in Iran.\n\nKey findings of the report are below:\n\n$713 more on Housing Costs: Wisconsin families have had to spend $713 more on housing costs, such as rent and mortgage payments since President Trump took office.\n\n$310 more for Groceries: Americans paid $310 more for groceries in President Trump\u2019s first year than in 2024, and grocery prices are now 4 percent higher than when Trump took office.\n\n$378 more for Gas: In total, people across Wisconsin have spent $877 million more on gas since the beginning of Trump\u2019s war of choice in Iran. That means the average family in Wisconsin has spent $378 more on gas in this time.\n\nHigher Health Care Costs: Because of Trump and Republicans\u2019 refusal to extend the Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax cuts that help people afford their health insurance, monthly premiums for ACA plans rose over 50 percent on average in 2026 compared to last year. Meanwhile, deductibles surged to record highs, increasing by more than $1,000 on average.\n\nRead the full report here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-06-13T06:32:19Z", "2026-06-13T06:34:27Z"]], "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://www.baldwin.senate.gov/news/press-releases/report-wisconsin-families-paying-over-3000-more-under-president-donald-trump"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.9000126048922539, "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"}
