President Biden is facing pressure from a prominent Arizona Democrat to take action on the soaring gas prices affecting the state. Rep. Ruben Gallego, the likely Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Arizona, penned a letter to Biden, urging him to provide relief for Western states grappling with high fuel costs.
Gallego highlighted the disparity in gas prices between Arizona and other states, emphasizing that Arizona residents should not have to bear significantly higher costs to commute and conduct daily activities. The average gas price in Arizona stands at $3.67 per gallon, notably above the national average of $3.47.
