Democratic lawmakers are accusing Donald Trump of failing to act on his repeated promise to lower grocery prices on his first day in office. The lawmakers, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren and 20 congressional Democrats, vocalized their disappointment in a scathing letter signed last Sunday.
“We write to ask about your Administration’s plan to lower food prices for American families. Americans, in the first days of your new presidency, are facing egg shortages amidst an avian flu outbreak and still-high prices at the grocery store,” the letter, which was first obtained by NBC News, read. “During your campaign, you repeatedly promised you would lower food prices ‘immediately’ if elected president.”
