Overall, Americans are paying 11% more for #electricity than they were in January, though that number varies widely: Costs have risen 37% in Missouri but have fallen in 3 states by as much as 13%, #NEADA found.
 “With prices going up so rapidly, electricity is becoming #unaffordable in many parts of the country,” said Mark Wolfe, an #energy economist & exec dir of NEADA. “And it isn’t just lower-income households anymore; it’s spilling into the middle class.”

I looked this morning. The healthcare premium estimates are indeed double. I'm a healthy person and almost don't need insurance. But insurance is there to cover the risk. The Republicans caused this rate increase. It's astounding. Call your reps! #Unaffordable #AngryAtGOP #WeNeedObamacare

Renting in #Maine is #unaffordable, but it’s the best option in #NewEngland

by Kathleen O'Brien July 23, 2025

"Someone earning minimum wage needs to work 61 hours a week to afford a modest one-bedroom apartment in Maine.

"Maine, like last year, was ranked 26th, which makes it more affordable than any other state in New England. That’s because someone needs to earn $28.42 per hour to afford a two-bedroom unit in Maine — nearly double Maine’s current minimum wage of $14.65 — according to the study."
