How much did you pay for gas this morning?

… well, Bay Area Congressman Jerry McNerney wants you to pay even more.

The NRCC has a new ad up in California highlighting McNerney’s support for a national energy tax.

NRCC COMMENT: “Record high gas prices are hurting everyone, but McNerney doesn’t seem to care. He wants more taxes and higher gas prices to support his spending policies.” – NRCC Spokesman Daniel Scarpinato

The script for this ad is as follows:

ANNOUNCER: On top of soaring unemployment, record high gas prices are hurting everyone in the Valley.

Back in Washington, Bay Area Congressman McNerney voted for a national energy tax that would drive up gas prices even higher.

Hard to imagine.

Experts say McNerney’s tax could destroy 300,000 California jobs. 

Valley farmers and families would be devastated by McNerney’s energy tax.

Bay Area Congressman McNerney- higher gas prices, lost jobs.
