Costa’s record: higher gas, higher taxes, weaker energy

October 23, 2025

Gas prices are finally dropping, but out of touch Democrat Jim Costa can’t take any of the credit. Costa has spent years backing radical Green New Deal policies that drove up prices, weakened American energy, and made life more expensive for working families in California.

“While President Trump and Republicans are bringing relief at the pump, Jim Costa continues to side with Washington extremists who want to tax, regulate, and shut down American energy production, policies that would send prices right back up.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
