US Consumers Feel the Pinch as Inflation Concerns Linger Despite a slowdown in inflation, US consumers continue to struggle with high prices, spotlighting inflation as a key political challenge ahead of the upcoming elections.

In terms of voter priorities, inflation trails only immigration and the broader economic landscape, but it leads issues like foreign policy, climate change, taxes, healthcare, and crime, as found in a recent Wall Street Journal poll.
