You must act immediately to end Trump's illegal war in the Middle East and reverse the tariffs, tax cuts, and mass deportation policies that have pushed America into a global economic crisis.
The numbers tell the story. GDP growth collapsed to just 0.7% in Q4. We've lost jobs in 5 of the last 10 months. All three inflation gauges are running above the Fed's target, with the Producer Price Index data this week showing inflation accelerating. Jet fuel prices have more than doubled in three weeks. United Airlines now faces an extra $11 billion in annual fuel costs, more than double their best year's profits. A key Wall Street gauge is pricing inflation to surge above 5% this year, which could force the Fed to raise rates and trigger a recession.
Farm groups are warning of accelerated closures and reduced domestic food production. States like Georgia are suspending gas taxes, weakening their fiscal positions just as revenues fall. The total economic damage is on track to rival the 2008 financial crisis.
This war must end now. Vote to defund military operations in the Middle East, rescind the tariffs, and block any legislation that extends Trump's failed economic agenda. Every day of inaction makes recovery harder.
