Pump Pain: How Soon Will Gas Prices Finally Drop?

The average price of gasoline has soared over the last two months, but the Trump administration insists that relief is coming rapidly once hostilities with Iran conclude. FOX Business Correspondent Lauren Simonetti joins the Rundown to break down the reality of the energy market including why the U.S. is exporting record amounts of natural gas while domestic prices remain high and what it means for your wallet now that the UAE is leaving the world’s biggest oil cartel. Plus, they also discuss if the U.S. is poised to become the new global "power center" for energy. The Trump administration’s "Make America Healthy Again" initiative is targeting the high cost of healthcare through aggressive drug price negotiations and new transparency mandates. President Trump’s National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, Dr. Tom Keane, joins to discuss the implementation of a policy requiring drug companies to match the lower prices paid by other countries, the launch of the TrumpRx discount platform, and a new rule requiring doctors to show patients real-time drug costs and cheaper alternatives during appointments. PLUS, commentary by Jason Chaffetz, FOX News contributor and the host of the Jason In The House podcast on FOX News Radio. PHOTO CREDIT: ASSOCIATED PRESS Learn more about your ad choices.
