Too bad they don't have the same concerns about the Biden Administration and their own party's energy policies that are driving up the costs of gasoline - for those same people and communities that depend on driving to and from work.
Oil (and gasoline) prices are once again rising because of new OPEC production cuts. During the last administration, the United States was the "swing producer" of oil. What OPEC did/said didn't affect market prices. Biden cancelled a pipeline to bring oil from Alberta, has discouraged new production domestically, and used resources from the SPR to address his sagging poll numbers.
