US Gas Prices Drop as Summer Approaches

Experts attribute the decline to reduced demand, increased supply, and stable oil prices.

  • The national average for gas prices fell to $3.44, down 9 cents from last week.
  • Current prices are over 14 cents lower than this time last year.
  • Reduced demand post-pandemic and increased refinery output are key factors.
  • The Biden administration released 1 million barrels from a reserve to help lower prices.
  • Experts predict prices could continue to fall, barring major disruptions.
