BREAKING: Gov. Andy Beshear Announces State Of Emergency In Kentucky Over Gas Prices Amid Iran War

Published | Video Starts at 05:13

This morning I sent two letters urging leadership in Congress and leaders in Kentucky's congressional delegation to suspend the federal gas tax until the end of the year. It would reduce the price of gas by 18.4 cents if Congress would act. These leaders have a chance to help our people when they desperately need relief. I pray they can put the political games they've been playing to the side and take a long overdue step to help American families. (05:13–05:19)
