With much anxiety and worrying what's coming next, people may feel that they are losing more than they planned because of some of Donald Trump's policies as U.S. President and his appointees. These are some of the broader concerns people have raised about the consequences of Trump’s policies. The effects depend on different perspectives and political ideologies.
Healthcare Access: Efforts to cut back on resources and change the focus of health departments may leave millions without healthcare coverage or facing higher premiums and out-of-pocket costs.

Environmental Protections: Deregulation of environmental protections, rolling back clean air and water standards, could lead to more pollution and less focus on addressing climate change.
Social Safety Nets: Cuts to programs like Social Security, Medicaid, and food assistance could harm vulnerable populations who rely on these safety nets for basic survival.
Immigration Rights: Strict immigration policies, such as family separation have led to the disruption of immigrant families and limited opportunities for asylum seekers.
Education: Policies that favor privatization, such as expanding charter schools, may lead to reduced funding for public schools and fewer resources for students in low-income communities.
Civil Rights Protections: Rollbacks of protections for marginalized communities, including people of color, LGBTQ individuals, and women, could limit their access to equal rights and opportunities.
Labor Rights: Trump’s firing of government workers and his stance on labor unions and regulations may undermine workers' rights to organize, as well as protections for fair wages and working conditions.
Global Relations: Trade wars, such as the one with China, Canada, the EU, and a more isolationist foreign policy may harm international relationships, leading to job losses and disruptions in trade.
Affordable Housing: Cuts to housing programs could leave many low-income individuals and families without affordable housing options.
Public Health: Emphasis on minimizing restrictions and reluctance to adopt strong public health measures.
