MARYLAND DISTRICT 5 ISSUES
Cost of Living
In a period of historic inflation, the cost of living has never been greater. Even in some of the solidly middle-class areas of this district, people are falling behind on their mortgages, defaulting on car loans and credit card payments. From groceries to gas, many families are forced to make difficult decisions in order to survive. No single person is to blame for this, but I think most people will agree with me when I say, something has to change.
As the Representative for MD-5, I'll explore measures that include giving tax breaks to working families, and providing targeted relief programs for fixed-income individuals. Inflation might be a complex challenge, but together, we'll face it head-on.
