Cartwright has a gas problem

May 24, 2022

Matt Cartwright is sweating about record-high gas prices as he pushes a green energy agenda.

Cartwright went on Fox News this weekend, blaming surging gas prices on the pandemic, price gouging, and Vladimir Putin, saying Americans “agreed…to suck it up” to pay more at the pump in defense of Ukraine.

But Cartwright voted against the Keystone Pipeline four times since 2013, is “all on board” with progressives’ Green New Deal, and co-sponsored a federal carbon tax and dividend bill that would raise gas prices and destroy Pennsylvania’s coal industry.
