Biden demands gas companies lower prices at the pump: 'Do it now!'

President Joe Biden on Monday issued a firm declaration to fuel companies in the United States, ordering them to lower fuel prices for consumers to a level the president said would reflect what the product actually costs. Biden made the remarks at a meeting of the White House Competition Council, which the president established by executive order last July.

Gas prices

  • Gas prices reached record levels earlier this year as supply chain crises and inflation sent fuel costs at the pump soaring to unheard-of levels.
  • Those prices have been declining over the past few months, with AAA noting that gas prices on Sept. 27 were down 11 cents per gallon relative to a month ago.
