Schakowsky and Durbin Challenge President Bush To Bring Drivers Relief At The Gas Pump After Three Years of Climbing Prices Under His Leadership
Issues: Oil and Gas
CHICAGO, IL - U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) and U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) today challenged President Bush to bring consumers in Chicago and across the country relief at the gas pump.
Standing across from a gas station in Schakowsky's Congressional District where prices have climbed to at least $2.00 a gallon, the Congressional leaders expressed concern that President Bush's failed energy strategy is costing families in Illinois hundreds of dollars a year and challenged him to take immediate steps to help consumers, especially as the summer driving season approaches.
