Dembo criticized Congressional inaction regarding the war in Iran, while Alvarado proposed lowering costs through tax cuts and reducing clean energy regulations.

Why it matters
The campaign emphasizes that the cost of living and inflation are primary concerns for voters in the district. Alvarado stated that lower taxes and energy independence would help lower costs, while Dembo argued that Congressional action on the Iran war was necessary to bring gas and diesel prices back down.
