It's not true in Oregon because unfortunately, the Oregon legislature, where I was for 12 years, has decided to impose clean fuel standards that are driving up the cost of fuel. And so it's not surprising to see that The cost of fuel in Oregon is still something like a dollar to a dollar and a half higher than in other states across the nation. Of course, the big beautiful bill we're referring to it now more frequently is either the big bill or the working family tax cut, but it's the big bill that we passed a couple of months ago.

CLAIM

Asserts that fuel costs in Oregon are higher than in other states by $1 to $1.50.
