Alexandria Butcher Shop Pulls Canadian Cheeses as Tariffs Squeeze Holiday Supply

At The Cut Butchery in Alexandria, Virginia, some of the cheese that used to sit in the case simply isn't there anymore. Owner Ben Knezic says tariffs have made certain imported products too costly to keep selling, forcing him to raise prices on cheese, wine and other goods he brings in from overseas — with the holiday season now bearing down and no easy fix in sight.

Guest Column: Energy affordability essential for working families

When I was 24 years old, I was raising my son while earning $5.25 an hour as a gas station cashier in Prince William County. Every paycheck was spoken for before it arrived. There were times when my family had to choose between putting food on the table and paying utility bills. There were times when the lights were cut off because there simply wasn’t enough money to cover everything. Those experiences taught me that affordability isn’t an abstract policy discussion. For working families, it’s about whether they can stay in their homes, keep the lights on and create opportunities for their children. My story is not about hardship. It’s about opportunity. Virginia allowed me to build a career, support my family and serve my community. That’s why I believe major economic and energy decisions should be judged by a simple question: Will they help Virginia families get ahead? That is how I view the proposed merger between Dominion Energy and NextEra Energy. While this proposal deserves careful scrutiny, it also presents potential opportunities for Virginia consumers, workers, businesses and communities. The most immediate impact for many families would be affordability. The companies have proposed four years of residential bill

The housing market across the Washington Capital Region stays active through winter because it runs on a year-round cycle rather than the sharp seasonal swings seen in many parts of the country. A diverse workforce, limited new construction and a steady flow of relocations keep buyers and sellers moving across D.C., Maryland and Northern Virginia even as the holidays approach.
