Inflation Accelerates Due to Tiffany-Backed Policies

MADISON, Wis. — Inflation numbers are rapidly rising due to surging energy costs driven by the Tom Tiffany-backed unprovoked war in Iran. Consumer prices in the United States rose last month at the fastest rate since May 2023 across the board—from tomatoes, which are up nearly 40% from last year, to airfares, up more than 20% from last year.

“Tom Tiffany stands by his MAGA policies despite the pain they cause Wisconsinites,” said Democratic Party of Wisconsin spokesperson Emily Stuckey. “Tiffany raises costs for Wisconsinites and makes them foot the bill for his agenda. Clearly, there is nothing that will make Tiffany break with his MAGA political priorities.”
