White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Wednesday urged operators of gasoline stations to pass on the recent retreat in oil prices to Americans. "Retail gasoline prices are updated at least daily, and if gas retailers' costs are going down, they need to immediately pass those savings on to consumers," she told reporters during a briefing. President Joe Biden made the same point on gasoline earlier Wednesday, tweeting that oil prices are decreasing, so "gas prices should too."
