There is a reason why working families are falling further and further behind. The cost of housing, health care and other basic necessities are rising much faster than wages. Learn about an excellent study from the Ludwig Institute.

Affordability gap: Most Americans not making enough to cover basic costs of living
The majority of Americans don't make enough to cover basic costs of living like health care and rent. It's called the affordability gap. Gene Ludwig, founder and chairman of the Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Prosperity, joined "Evening News Plus" to discuss.

The bottom 60% of US households can’t afford the basic costs of living. How do Trump and Republicans respond? Cutting Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP. For Trump, tax cuts for billionaires are more important than Americans being able to afford the basics.

The disastrous Republican reconciliation bill would cut Medicaid & the Affordable Care Act by $715 billion – throwing 13.7 million Americans off of Medicaid & the health insurance they currently have – in order to give a $1.2 trillion tax break to the top 1%. It must be defeated.

If Trump's "big, beautiful" reconciliation bill goes through, 13.7 million people will lose their health insurance & even more will become underinsured. Make no mistake, thousands of low-income & working class Americans will die unnecessarily if it passes. We must not allow it.

There has been many show cut too short over the decades. Paramount/Nick ones and others as well. I don’t know what they are thinking. In my era it was Salute Your Shorts, Hey Dude and What Would You Do? All only had two seasons. I can’t think of any other kid shows/showsthat were cut off that short.

Many of DOGE's claimed cuts appear to be misleading, and the potential for actual savings continues to be uncertain.
