These price increases aren’t happening on their own. Gas prices are skyrocketing because of Trump’s war in Iran. Costs of everyday goods are up because of Trump’s blanket tariffs. After promising to lower costs “on day one,” the President has gone out of his way to hike up costs Quoting ABC News

Small businesses are struggling to keep their doors open because of the extra costs Donald Trump has imposed on them. Trump needs to end his reckless war in Iran, revoke his chaotic blanket tariffs, and start putting Americans first for a change.

Congress has a responsibility under the Constitution to check the Supreme Court when their decisions impede on Nevadans’ fundamental rights. That is our system of checks and balances that the Founders created to protect our freedoms, and that’s what the Supreme Court Review Act is about.
