Ben Chandler – Gas Prices Rising

 With weekend headlines like “Gas Prices are Highest Ever for This Time of Year”, and “Oil jumps to 9 month high…” Americans are wondering – just how bad are things going to get?

Gas prices are skyrocketing, Ben Chandler and his fellow Democrats in Washington should be doing everything possible to increase domestic energy production, improve energy security and advocate for sensible regulations to help middle-class families get relief at the pump. Instead Chandler and President Obama are fighting for more stimulus style giveaways – like Solyndra – that have already cost taxpayers billions.

Since soaring gas prices are squeezing middle-class family budgets, Chandler should finally abandon his failed energy policies and start helping Kentucky families.

As you cover rising gas prices, please consider the following quote:

NRCC Comment: “Rather than fight for energy independence and lower gas prices on behalf of Kentucky families, Ben Chandler appears committed to pursue the same failed agenda that only benefits the anti-job interest groups who are bankrolling Democrat campaigns.” – NRCC Spokesman Nat Sillin
