The economic hardships of millions of Americans are going unseen.
According to a new poll from the National True Cost of Living Coalition, 65% of middle-class Americans are struggling financially and don’t expect that to change for the remainder of their lives.
A new national true cost of living measure would allow us to accurately measure economic security by realistically accounting for what American families truly need to live, work, take care of their loved ones and plan for the future.
We all deserve an opportunity to make a better life for ourselves and our families.
