Tim Bishop – Gas Prices Rising

June 25, 2012

 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, Tim Bishop 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 Bishop 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, Bishop should finally abandon his failed energy policies and start helping Long Island 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 Long Island families, Tim Bishop 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
