Link to tweet
Since the weekend, oil prices have fallen by about 10 percent.
Yet gas prices just hit a new high.
This is exploitation by oil and gas companies plain and simple.
It needs to end. And Big Oil needs to be held accountable.

I haven't heard anything since his announcement.
The House is kinda busy with other priorities at the moment. But the Senate on the other hand could be doing more.
Hearings, hearings, hearings.
When do we want it? NOW
