Families Pay More This Labor Day Weekend Thanks to House Republicans

From expensive fill-ups to pricey cookouts, House Republicans have turned Labor Day Weekend into a major financial headache.
As families pack up the car and fire up the grill, taking a well-earned end-of-summer break is costing a small fortune. From gas to groceries, House Republicans’ reckless economic agenda is sending prices skyrocketing this Labor Day.

REMINDER: Fuel prices are projected to reach record highs this Labor Day, the cost of holiday grilling essentials continues to rise (which can be measured on HouseRepublicanPriceHike.com), but House Republicans are too busy celebrating $2.3 trillion in tax cuts for the rich to do anything about it.

DCCC Spokesperson Aidan Johnson:
“Instead of doing their job to lower costs for families ahead of Labor Day weekend, House Republicans are partying at the White House, loading up on confetti for a midterm convention, and pocketing taxpayer dollars while planning another weeks-long getaway. Working families are tired of the broken promises, and they’ll send vulnerable Republicans packing at the ballot box this November.”
