Washington, D.C. – U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL-03), reacted to reports that Alabama’s gas prices hit a record high.

“As gas prices continue to rise, Joe Biden is starting to rival Jimmy Carter for the worst president ever. President Trump made our nation energy independent by using our vast natural resources. What’s frustrating is that Joe Biden has restricted our ability to produce oil and gas here at home – he instead would rather buy oil from the middle east or Venezuela. Folks in Alabama don’t need Joe Biden’s Green New Deal nonsense – what they need is to be able to fill up their tanks so they can get to work without paying an arm and leg. Joe Biden needs to put America first just like President Trump did.”
