The Politics of Affordability: Inside the New POLITICO Poll

Americans are struggling with the cost of living, and they’re calling for someone to do something. With Democrats aiming to run on affordability in the midterms, and Trump and Republicans seeking to shore up an issue that helped them dominate in last year’s elections, POLITICO is all over the issue. A new edition of The POLITICO Poll confirms that affordability is Americans’ top priority — both a major policy and political issue — and sheds new light on voters’ discontent.

Join us for an exclusive POLITICO Pro Briefing on Thursday, December 4, at 1:00pm ET, to hear new findings from the poll and go deep on the problems and possibilities around two of the biggest policy areas: housing and trade. How is the Trump administration addressing affordability, and what impact are its policies having? What’s being discussed on the Hill, and what should we expect to pop up in the future? And, of course, how will that interact with the midterms?
