Conservative Group Invests in Cost of Living Message

Summary

American Action Network (AAN), a conservative nonprofit advocacy group, has spent over $37 million on messaging about cost-of-living issues, according to its president, Chris Winkelman. The group believes that Republicans can use the affordability message to reach voters in the 2026 midterms. AAN has been advancing messaging on the Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill, which was passed in July last year. A recent Fox News poll shows that 58% of voters view cost of living as their top economic worry. Democrats have also targeted affordability, pointing to President Trump’s promises of lowering everyday costs that have been hindered by the war in Iran and higher gas prices.
