Focused on Fixing: It will take three to six months to get the egg supply back to where it should be

” This is another example of an economic mess that President Trump inherited...”

Egg prices continue to see record highs.

During yesterday’s press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters the administration shares the same concerns as the American people when it comes to egg prices.

“Good news, the average cost of a dozen eggs is actually down since Secretary Rollins and President Trump announced their plan. It’s down $1.85, so that’s good news on the cost of eggs, and as we know, under the Biden administration, egg prices were up 22%. This is another example of an economic mess that President Trump inherited, and the Secretary of Agriculture and the President are focused on fixing it.”

The Press Secretary did go on to say that it will take three to six months to get the egg supply back to where it should be.
