Jayapal: We Don't 'Have to Reduce' Gas Prices, We Can Lower Other Costs with Spending Bill

On Thursday's broadcast of MSNBC's "MTP Daily," Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) responded to a question on what the administration or Congress should do on gas prices by stating that "It isn't really that you have to reduce the gas price, what you have to do is reduce the costs for families" and that reducing cost "doesn't have to be through lowering gas prices. That's what I'm saying with Build Back Better. If we lower costs, that's what a family is looking at."
