AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
The buzzword of the month is "affordability," and based on the election results from New York, New Jersey, and Virginia, voters think that's declining. Democrats think they've found a winning issue here to win back the hearts and minds of voters after the Trump sweep last year.
It's true that people are angry about prices. Steaks and hamburgers are more expensive than ever. So are coffee and rents, and medical care. Many Americans are about to see a 10%-20% increase in their health care premiums starting in January.
