A large people in America said that US President Trump’s tariffs are making life more expensive and hitting their family budgets. The survey found people are feeling the pinch at the shops and at home.
About seven in 10 Americans said they are spending more on groceries this year compared with last year. Around 6 in 10 said they are paying more for utilities.
Roughly four in 10 said they are spending more on healthcare, housing and fuel.
The majority of Americans said their grocery bills have risen this year. Women are also more likely than men to report higher spending in almost every category.
President Trump’s administration has imposed steep tariffs on several foreign countries, including India, in his second term.
His tariff policy, which is now under review by the Supreme Court, has drawn disapproval from 65 per cent of Americans, who said it has worsened inflation and hurt the economy.
This comes as the US imposed a 50 per cent tariff on India, which is one of the US’s largest trading partners.
