Americans are feeling even more pain at the pump as gas prices hit a record high nationwide.
According to AAA, fuel prices are topping an all time high this week, as the price of gas will set wallets back at least $4 a gallon in all 50 states for the first time.
Georgia, Kansas and Oklahoma are three states remaining under the $4 threshold. This is considered “cheap” nowadays.
AAA told The Hill, this is a result of rising crude oil prices which is at $110 a barrel. The surge, they say is canceling out other factors that would normally create some relief.
The group does not expect to see a lull in prices anytime soon.
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) criticized the Biden administration for reducing American energy independence and going to dictators for assistance, as fuel prices close in to almost $5 a gallon in some parts of Florida for the 9th consecutive day in a row.
