Chris Wright: ‘The Biggest Problem Right Now With Gasoline Prices Is Refineries’ as Fuel Costs Rise

‘We are doing everything we can within the administration to promote America’s refinery’

RUSH EXCERPT:

WRIGHT: "President Trump both of his terms all in on energy pro American natural gas and growing America’s refinery production yet we have two large crises in the world today. When the Russia Ukraine were the devastating Russian refining capacity in the conflict in the Middle East is interrupting it. This is pushed up guzzling prices and pushed a diesel prices. Any progress in either one of these conflicts will bring down pressure. While also we are doing everything we can within the administration to promote America’s refinery. The biggest problem right now with gasoline prices as refineries. The Russian refineries are devastated. 40% down from where they were before and we lost capacity in Middle East is not bringing products to market. During the Biden Administration they celebrated closing over a dozen United States refineries and governor Gavin Newsom in California in the last 12 months forced the closure of two refineries. It’s that missing refining capacity it’s what’s giving that extra boost to prices."
