Eggs for sale at a Lidl grocery store in Manassas in January 2023.

The average price of a dozen eggs in the U.S. was $4.25 in 2022, up from $1.54 in 2019.

And it's only expected to rise, making it more difficult for residents to feed their families. Prince William County Coles District Supervisor Yesli Vega says she's received letters, including one from the father of a family of 10, who goes through 20 eggs a day to feed his family, asking her if something can be done to ease the family's egg woes.

Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D) came to Woodbridge today to urge fellow congressional leaders to increase the debt ceiling, allowing the Federal Government to borrow more money.

Spanberger said the risk of defaulting on the country's loans is a "far greater risk" than anything the U.S. military is shooting down from the sky. Over the past week, the Air Force shot down three unidentified foreign aircraft and a spy balloon from China that floated from Alaska to the South Carolina coast before being shot down, leading many to speculate on the type and source of the unknown objects and why they flew into U.S. airspace.
