clear that we needed to when the price of oil came down, the price at the pump had to colt down as well. that helped to contribute to what we see now, which is a consistent downward trend since the summer, down about $1.75 a gallon. we re down to levels that are lower than they were a year ago. and most stations are putting $3.09 a ghon. in practical terms, this matters. because for a two-car family in a typical month, that $1.75 translates to about $200 a month in savings. that s savings that can be deployed for other priorities, whether that s child care or health care or just meeting holiday needs. a lot of that is the quiet policy and diplomacy the president has been doing over the past year.
