The White House's "X" account was attacked on social media for sharing a post targeting concert and hotel junk fees as the Israel-Gaza war continued on Monday.

"Junk fees can add up to hundreds of dollars for working families. President Biden continues to call on Congress to pass the Junk Fee Prevention Act to stop unfair charges by hotels, airlines, cable and internet companies, and online ticket sellers," the post read.
