Artificial Christmas trees will cost an estimated 10% to 20% more this season than they did last year because of increased tariff costs, according to several major U.S. importers.

And the cost of lights could jump as much as 63% for the same reason.
Tariffs could be coming for your Christmas tree
Mass market Christmas decor, including artificial trees, hasn't been manufactured in the United States for decades.

ICYMI: DHS is seeking to collect state driver's license data as it takes on an unprecedented expansion of a system that used to just contain info on immigrants but now has info on hundreds of millions of Americans, including SSNs. Via me &
@zachdespart.bsky.social @propublica.org @texastribune.org

“The administration wants to get as much data as it can, however it can, whenever it can.”
