Florida Congressman Byron Donalds says the Biden administration is directly to blame for the out-of-control gas prices. “President Biden’s refusal to unleash America’s energy industry is crippling our economy and financially straining Floridians.

The blame for the gas price hike is due to none other than President Biden and his radical agenda.”
