Energy Secretary Chris Wright discusses gas price outlook amid Iran conflict
Energy Secretary Chris Wright said he is avoiding price predictions on gas despite Wall Street warnings that prices could exceed $5 per gallon, citing the ongoing Iran conflict as a temporary driver of elevated fuel costs. Wright emphasized the U.S. position as the world's largest producer of oil and natural gas, stating prices will remain high during the conflict but decline afterward. The Trump administration is considering pausing the federal gas tax as a measure to provide relief.
