Americans most concerned about inflation and cost of living: Survey
A national survey by Marquette University Law School found inflation and cost of living are the top concerns for Americans, with declining public approval of President Donald Trump's economic handling and tariffs. The U.S. war in Iran and rising gas prices contributed to economic pessimism, while a coalition of 25 Democratic-led states sued the Trump administration over tariffs. Over 70% of respondents reported higher grocery costs, and 69% expect inflation to rise next year.
