Gohmert Responds to State of the Union Speech

WASHINGTON, D.C. — East Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert says there were a few issues he found problematic in the State of the Union Address — mainly President Obama’s long-range push for clean energy initiatives. Gohmert says the world is desperate for gasoline and that oil companies will take advantage — selling the fuel in other places, such as Asia, Africa, and South America. According to KETK, Gohmert says that would drive the price of gasoline up to 5, 6, even 7 dollars a gallon — and that the working poor would be among those most affected. Two-thirds of the nation’s refined gasoline is produced in Texas.
