REPORT: Brian Fitzpatrick’s Early Vote for Iran War Has Cost Average Household $450 More on Gas and Energy

Vulnerable Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick initially voted to support Trump’s war of choice in Iran. Now, because of his vote, American families have shelled out $450 more per-household in energy expenses.

According to Moody’s Analytics, Republicans’ reckless war has “cumulatively cost American consumers nearly $60 billion as gas prices and airline fares have surged” and, “if prices stay at current levels, the average household could take a hit of almost $2,000 at the one-year mark of the war.”

REMINDER: Fitzpatrick gave Donald Trump a blank check to spend money overseas on a reckless war with Iran, and now hardworking people all across Bucks County are facing skyrocketing prices at the pump.

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Brian Fitzpatrick gave Donald Trump a blank check to spend money overseas on a reckless war with Iran, and now Pennsylvanians are forced to pay the price. That’s the record Fitzpatrick will be judged on in November.”
