Trump Energy Agenda Driving Gas Prices Towards Four-Year Lows
President Donald J. Trump’s commitment to unleashing American energy production is bringing relief at the pump, with gas prices nearing a four-year low across the country.
AAA projects the national average for regular gasoline is on track to dip below $3 per gallon for the first time since 2021, reflecting consistent declines over the past week, month, and year. GasBuddy confirms the trend, citing price declines in nearly every state — and predicting some areas could even see prices “drop below $2 per gallon in the weeks ahead.”
The price decline is being reported in local outlets across the country:
