I can't believe this bill is even being considered! It's just ridiculous that they would try to stop the exportation of gasoline during high prices. It's going to hurt our economy and make things even more expensive for everyone. I don't see how this is going to help anyone in the long run. It's just going to cause more problems for us all. #HRBill8266 #GasolineExportation
