Trump to address affordability. And, the significance of Indiana's redistricting fight
"President Trump travels to Mount Pocono, Pa., today to discuss his administration's efforts to address a top concern for voters: affordability. Yesterday at the White House, the president previewed his talking points, stating, "Democrats caused the affordability problem." He also said that his administration is working to fix it. Recent polls show voters blame the president's policies for high prices."
"The president will ramp up domestic travel to pitch his policies to the American people late this year into next year, a senior White House official, unauthorized to speak publicly, tells NPR's Tamara Keith. The official also said that the president will balance discussing the administration's perceived economic successes with acknowledging that more work remains. It is not yet known if the president will pair his messaging with new policies."
President Trump is traveling to Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, to promote his administration's efforts to address affordability. He blamed Democrats for the affordability problem and said the administration is working to fix it. Recent polls show many voters blame the president's policies for high prices. The administration plans increased domestic travel late this year into next year to highlight economic messages while acknowledging more work remains. A $12 billion bailout was announced for farmers harmed by tariffs, described as bridge money until trade deals pay off. The Supreme Court is weighing whether the president can more freely remove independent-agency officials, with conservative justices raising separation-of-powers concerns.
