Drivers in three key swing states are about to see even more billboards blaming President Donald Trump for rising prices, according to details shared first with Semafor.

Home of the Brave is nearly doubling its billboard campaign in Michigan, Ohio, and Iowa, adding $1 million in new billboards on top of the $1.25 million the group already spent.

The new plans bring the group’s total billboards across those three states to more than 350. The billboards hit Trump for higher grocery prices, ding Republicans for supporting Trump’s tariffs, and link gas prices to the unpopular Iran war. They’re intended to help Democratic Senate and House candidates that will determine congressional control.

“Job number one is winning back Congress. Once we do that, we can start finally holding this administration accountable,” said Home of the Brave advisory board member Sarah Longwell.
