I signed onto this letter because rising housing costs threaten the prosperity of future generations in San Diego and across the country. New Dems laid out commonsense, immediate steps the Administration can take to tackle our nation’s housing crisis.
Housing is unaffordable for too many families, who have to choose between putting food on their table & keeping a roof over their heads.

New Dems, led by @normajtorres.bsky.social & @repemiliasykes.bsky.social, wrote to President Trump, demanding he take immediate action to address this crisis.

Veterans have given so much to our country. It's time we give back.

Popular gift prices are up 26%.

40% of families are buying fewer gifts this year.

More than 60% of Americans are stressed about holiday prices.

That's pretty dramatic, no?
Trump to holiday shoppers concerned about high prices:

"Look, don't be dramatic."
