Oil Over $100. Your Gas Bill Soars. GOP Looks Away.
Oil jumped past $100 a barrel. You pay it at the pump while Republican leaders crowd a Dallas pep rally and avoid talking about gas prices.
Oil over $100 is pushing gas higher. Family budgets take the hit. Republicans know this will dog them through Election Day, and they still duck the subject. Their economic playbook has not delivered relief. Trump’s mass deportations and tariffs have not produced jobs, growth, or lower prices. Groceries like beef are still expensive. Gas is high amid an Iran war with no clear end in sight.
You feel it every time you fill up.
With oil at $100, Republican candidates change the subject instead of explaining your next tank. They have no plan to cut your costs. They stage rallies and hope you do not notice your receipt. You do not have to change your whole identity to change this outcome. Keep your views and still vote out the folks who keep dodging the price at the pump. On their watch, costs keep biting. They have not fixed it.
If leaders will not face your receipt, voters can make them.
- Ask your local Republican candidate how they will lower your fuel bill without more tariffs, then share their answer
- Share this with one neighbor who is cutting back because of gas prices
- Mark the 2026 midterms on your calendar and plan your vote
- Check your voter registration at Vote.gov
