SAN DIEGO — For the first time in nearly a month, gas prices in San Diego did not increase on Monday, but they are expected to jump ahead of the summer travel season. The average price is still above the $5 mark and $0.44 higher than a month ago.The average price of gasoline in California was $5.45 as of Monday, April 15.
Oil companies, which are reporting record profits, claim in TV ads, billboards and even at the pump it's not their fault. They blame California's taxes attached to the price of gas and tariffs designed to reduce pollution and build new roads. Gov. Gavin Newsom vehemently disagrees, saying in a recent press release,"oil companies are making a killing" and accusing them of"greed" and"gouging."
"There's no question in 2022 and 2023, their profits were higher than they've been in the last 20 years," says Jamie Court of Consumer Watchdog."So, for them to say they're making pennies is just malarkey."
