Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi lamented skyrocketing inflation during her weekly press briefing from the US Capitol Thursday, saying “it’s not fair” that gas prices “don’t go down.”
“We call on the oil industry to boost production and stop hoarding profits. When the price of oil goes up, the price of gasoline goes up. When the price of oil goes down, the price of gasoline does not necessarily go down. This is not right. It’s not fair,” explained the top Democrat.
