CORY MILLS DID THAT: National Gas Average Rises to $4/Gallon

Cory Mills continues to recklessly stand behind House Republicans’ agenda, which is rapidly accelerating the affordability crisis in Florida.

In Florida alone, gas prices are now at $4.22 per gallon, and the national gas average just hit $4 per gallon, the highest since August of 2022.

REMINDER: Late last year, Mills was bragging about low gas prices. Now that gas prices in Orlando are the highest they have been in more than THREE YEARS…silence.
The sharp rise in gas prices comes as everyday Americans are struggling to make ends meet as everything gets more expensive. A recent CBS News YouGov poll found that 53% of Americans say Trump is making people WORSE OFF financially. Even worse: 60% of Independents say Trump’s policies are making them WORSE OFF – up from 38% in October 2024.

DCCC Spokesperson Madison Andrus:
Cory Mills ran on the promise that he would make life more affordable, but hasn’t done a damn thing to lower prices. This crisis is on extremists like Mills, who spends more time trying to dodge scandals than standing up for Floridians as prices continue to rise. Mills was happy to talk about gas prices before – he should be asked what he thinks about them now.”
