As President TACO Delays His Tariff Deadline Again, Prices Continue to Rise

Today was the day President TACO’s sweeping tariffs were supposed to go into effect – but instead he backtracked on his promise and pushed back his sweeping tariffs by one more week. Even with the delay, and with the constant chaos, Americans are already feeling the pain of higher prices on everything, including beef, toys, and household staples like dish soap and toothpaste.

Despite promising “90 deals in 90 days” the TACO administration has only finalized two official deals, which means “universal tariffs” are poised to go into effect soon, likely leading to even higher prices on everyday Americans.

The latest round of pending tariffs comes on the heels of news that inflation heated up last month, with tariffs contributing to rising prices on everyday consumer goods.

To help voters see how much the extreme and cruel Republican agenda is costing families across the country, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee created HouseRepublicanPriceHike.com, an interactive tool to show how much more people are paying for everyday goods under House Republicans’ control.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee will continue to hold House Republicans accountable for their broken promises and failure to lower costs.

DCCC Spokesperson Viet Shelton:
“Everything is getting more expensive, and it’s because of President TACO’s sweeping tariffs and the House Republicans cheering him on. The American people are tired of literally paying more for their reckless agenda and come November 2026, the sticker shock of rising costs on everyday goods will end up costing House Republicans the majority.”
