It’s week four of Washington’s shutdown, and it’s not the politicians feeling the pain. It’s the American people. The Democrats’ refusal to do what’s right and pass a continuing resolution is keeping the government closed. The Republican-led House of Representatives passed a clean CR (which will keep government funding at current levels), but Senate Democrats […]
Health care in America has major problems. You see it every day with skyrocketing insurance costs, no transparency, endless paperwork, and doctor burnout, while you’re stuck in the middle. Every bill, form, and “covered” charge that isn’t actually covered reminds us that the system no longer works for people — it serves bureaucrats and insurance […]
High energy costs are choking America’s potential. They’re not just raising our utility bills — they are raising the price of everything: groceries, gas, housing, and the American Dream itself. If energy drives prosperity, federal energy policies restrict it. Americans for Prosperity is working to change federal energy policy to unleash American energy independence through […]

And right now, Washington’s endless permitting process is driving your energy costs higher than ever. What’s the root cause of energy cost increases? Affordable […]
The broken system in Washington isn’t working for any of us. While you’re working hard to earn enough money to get by, our elected officials aren’t doing their jobs. They fail to pass budgets on time, add billions to our national debt, and let unelected bureaucrats write the rules that shape our daily lives. They […]
If you think your electricity bill is skyrocketing, you’re not wrong. Since 2020, electricity prices have been soaring. Why? Burdensome regulations and tax subsidies make it harder for our country to produce the abundant, reliable, and affordable electricity it needs to thrive. In many states, these regulations directly kill thousands of good-paying American jobs. If […]
Democrats and insurance lobbyists are fighting hard to extend former President Joe Biden’s Affordable Care Act tax credits, but there’s no reason to let them continue now that the crisis is over.
