Ask HN: What 2026 changes are journalists missing when covering new costs laws?

1•criticalmathq•1h ago
I’m trying to build a citeable “2026 budget reset” reference that only includes items with published tables/schedules (so you can convert them into dollars with transparent math), and I’m trying to avoid turning it into an endless “every law in every state” list.

So far I’ve covered items like:

ACA Marketplace premium cap sensitivity if enhanced subsidies aren’t extended for plan year 2026

NYC congestion pricing (daily rate + annualized commute math)

Hawaiʻi lodging tax rate change (rate delta → $ per $1,000) + cruise timing

Illinois grocery tax repeal vs local replacement mechanics

EV registration fee examples + verification sources

Federal baseline: indexed tax parameters (context, not a “new fee”)

Question: What big 2026 household cost changes have official schedules (fee tables, thresholds, indexed parameters, published rates) that you think should be included? Links to primary sources (agency PDF, statute page, official announcement) especially appreciated.

Current draft (for reference): https://www.thepricer.org/how-much-will-new-2026-laws-cost-you/
