Show Notes

Congressman Michael Baumgartner from Washington states fifth district is advocating for immediate action to alleviate high gas prices. He proposes temporarily suspending the states Climate Commitment Act, which contributes to the increased fuel costs. The spike in prices is attributed to the transition to summer-blend gasoline and global issues like disruptions in oil supply. These rising costs are impacting everyday people, including families, commuters, tradesmen, and small business owners. Baumgartner is collaborating with federal agencies to stabilize fuel supplies and reduce pressure on energy markets. He emphasizes the need for state leaders to prioritize real relief for working people by pausing certain green programs until the crisis subsides.
