DELIVERING EMERGENCY PRICE RELIEF:

Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a Presidential Memorandum to deliver emergency price relief for American families and defeat the cost-of-living crisis.

The Presidential Memorandum recognizes a critical component of the crushing cost of everyday living. The Biden Administration imposed complex regulatory burdens and radical policies designed to weaken American production.

President Trump is ordering all Federal agencies to untangle the American economy from Biden constraints and improve affordability of necessary goods and services and increase the prosperity of American workers.

This includes action to:

  • Drastically lower the cost of housing and expand housing supply;

  • Eliminate unnecessary administrative expenses and rent-seeking practices that drive up healthcare costs;

  • Eliminate counterproductive requirements raising the costs of home appliances;

  • Create employment opportunities for American workers, including drawing discouraged workers into the labor force; and

  • Eliminate harmful, coercive “climate” policies driving up the costs of food and fuel.

ENDING BIDEN’S WAR ON AFFORDABILITY: The Biden Administration’s destructive policies inflicted a historic inflation crisis on the American people.

Hardworking families are overwhelmed today by the cost of fuel, food, housing, automobiles, medical care, utilities, and insurance.

  • Unprecedented regulatory oppression from the Biden Administration has imposed almost $50,000 in costs on the average American household, whereas President Trump’s first-term agenda reduced regulatory costs by almost $11,000 per household.

  • Americans are unable to purchase homes at historic rates, in part due to regulatory requirements that alone account for 25 percent of the cost of constructing a new home.

  • Biden’s assault on plentiful and reliable American energy through impossible, unnecessary, and illegal regulatory demands have driven up the cost of transportation and manufacturing.

  • Biden’s war on energy has been a war on American consumers. American households are paying an average of $1,200 more per year in energy costs under President Biden’s policies. Since he took office, total energy costs rose by 36%, gasoline rose 41%, home energy costs rose 30%, electricity bills rose 29%, and gas bills rose 34%.

  • After averaging just $2.77 per gallon under President Trump, and a price of $2.33 upon leaving office, the price of gasoline skyrocketed under President Biden, reaching $3.33 a year later. It went on to reach a peak at $5.00 per gallon and remains elevated today.

  • The unlawful regulatory mandate on companies to eliminate gas-powered vehicles has resulted in artificial price increases in order to subsidize electric vehicles, largely disfavored by consumers.

EXPLANATION: This document presents a policy shift under President Trump aimed at reducing the financial burden on American families by reversing regulatory policies implemented during the Biden Administration. It argues that the previous administration's policies increased costs for essential goods and services through overregulation and climate-related mandates. The memorandum outlines specific steps to alleviate these burdens, focusing on energy independence, housing affordability, healthcare cost reduction, and economic growth through deregulation.

MEDIA SILENCE: Mainstream media outlets have largely ignored this initiative, attributing it to political bias and a preference for narratives that align with the left-leaning agenda. However, the administration asserts that it is the American people who ultimately decide the success of these policies, not media coverage.
