JENNINGS: "Now that‘s the national average."
TANDEN: "Yes."
PHILLIP: "And the national average of gas when Trump — when Trump took the oath — when Trump took the oath of office, it was $3.07. So we are — we are about 70-something cents above where we were a year ago."
JENNINGS: "In Kentucky, $3.37. That‘s where I live. My dad paid $2.79 in southern Indiana the other day. So it varies widely based on where you live."
