Inflation is emerging as a political risk for Republicans in the Senate, with MarketWatch pointing to how higher prices can translate into pressure on worker pay.

According to MarketWatch, a key channel is the impact of past policy decisions that contributed to higher prices, which then show up in wages and household costs.

The outlet frames its argument around how inflation dynamics can affect voter perceptions, given the relationship between price increases and pay.
