“Gas prices, I believe, are one of the poster-children, if you will, for the tone-deaf policy of the current administration,” Price said during a policy breakfast hosted by The Hill on Wednesday morning.


“I say tone-deaf because it’s clear that the administration either doesn’t understand the connection between gas prices and small business and job creation or doesn’t want to understand it,” he said.
