He said "HOPEFULLY by this time NEXT YEAR gas prices will be down" with a straight face.

[mrsleep]

How about a tax cut and stop taking so much money from us to begin with? Highest tax rate in the nation...

[orangeblood]

Why not just stop taxing it triple what most states tax gas... the companies allocate the costs straight to the consumer. It's not rocket science

[MG-kdet]

Gas station owners will simply jack gas higher to get your $400 card, which would be sucked up anyway with three tank fulls.

[tomtom]

probably goin to tax that 400 dollars 💩

[harris]

What’s wrong with just suspending the gas tax?? $400 for everyone just makes everything more complicated…

[ericthompson]

400 bucks? It costs me 100 to fill my tank right now. Four tanks of gas ain't shit.

[middleguy]

He looks to ease the price yet hasn't found where the gas tax is going and plans in adding a 50 cent per gallon tax in June. Yea he almost cares

[jordandontworryaboutit]

Giving someone their toe back after you took their leg isn’t really “easing the pain”

[realnapster]

It’s a downward spiral for most poor citizens of EU and US. Everyone hurts while rich politicians talk tough on news. Oil prices can cause recession. Many will lose their jobs and commit suicide.

[johnthompson]

Instead of this do this: “any county that has a refinery or a pipeline will have gas prices at 50% off retail prices. Paid by a direct tax on the oil companies “

[kevo]

need more details on the debit cards, can we use them for anything?

[USAcit]

Think of it as part of a refund from our state tax.

[Henry-sjkl]

Even an electric car? That stupid. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[imberrysandy]

i hope there isnt a weird loophole where there is 1 check for 1 car if registered by 2 people.

[alexblazquez]

Oh nice I get MY MONEY back. How kind of the government.

[nicoleb]

We need a real leader who can create a strong economy, NOT rebate bandaids that will only push the problem back and create future debt. Newsom should be removed.

[josejimenaz]

Why not recurring payments each month?😃

Did he ease the pain for the homeless yet? If not then I have doubts that he will ease this pain.
