With Gas Prices Doubling on His Watch, POTUS All-of-the-Above Rhetoric Not Adding Up

Congressman John Boehner
April 6, 2012


The Gas numbers game is a loser, for President Obama, todays Washington Times reports, and its easy to see why.  Gas prices have more than doubled on President Obamas watch, already reaching a record high of $3.94 for the month of April.  While the president has tried to make the case that he supports Republicans all-of-the-above energy policy, his rhetoric is belied by the facts that suggest otherwise.  Heres a by-the-numbers look at how the gap between President Obamas words and actions has driven up gas prices, taken a toll on American families and small businesses and cost jobs: 

House Republicans have passed nearly 30 bills as part of the Plan for Americas Job Creators and American Energy Initiative that would unlock Americas resources to help address soaring gas prices and create American jobs.  If the president is serious about showing the American people his all-of-the-above rhetoric is more about policy than politics, he should call on Senate Democrats to act on these bills so they can be enacted immediately.  Follow the progress of these bipartisan, House-passed jobs bills at jobs.gop.gov, and like the American Energy Initiative on Facebook to learn more about Republicans ongoing effort to help relieve the pain at the pump.
