Trump’s war on Iran making ‘everything more expensive’ in US
Democratic Senator Chris Coons says that Trump’s “war of choice in Iran has made everything more expensive”.
“It’s not just prices at the pump. It’s groceries, utility bills, and even mortgages,” Coons said in a post on X.
The lawmaker, who is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said it is US families “who are paying the price” for the war.
Earlier, Coons criticised the lack of clarity from the Trump administration on why the war was launched or when it would end.
It's not just prices at the pump. It's groceries, utility bills, and even mortgages: Trump’s war of choice in Iran has made everything more expensive, and it's American families who are paying the price.
