Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) slammed President Donald Trump on Monday for the surging cost of gas at the pump as tensions escalate in the Middle East.\n“Since Trump started his illegal war with Iran, Americans have paid $8.4 billion more at the gas pump,” Warren said, criticizing the Trump administration. Ordinary Americans have also had to shell out an additional $1,700 for “Trump's chaotic, illegal tariffs,” Warren said. “American families are footing the bill for Trump's reckless policies,” she said.\nHowever, concerns have been raised about the pipeline by officials as well as environmental groups. The pipeline is touted to supply over 60,000 barrels of oil a day, after a 2015 oil spill had led to its closure.\nGas prices saw a slight decline on Tuesday, with data from the American Automobile Association (AAA) showing that the national average price for a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. hovered at the $4.118 mark. Gas prices in California and Hawaii continued to top the charts at $5.884 and $5.650 per gallon, respectively.\nOn the crude oil front, the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude dropped 2.66% to $96.44 per barrel, while the Brent Crude oil also slipped 0.91% to $98.46/barrel at press time.\nThe Strait of Hormuz is a crucial part of the global crude oil supply chain and is responsible for over a fifth of the world’s total crude oil shipments. Iran had earlier warned that any blockades on the strait could negatively impact Americans.\nCheck out more of Benzinga's Future Of Mobility coverage by following this link.\nPhoto courtesy: Shutterstock\nTo add Benzinga News as your preferred source on Google, click here.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.40.0","shortVersion":"4.40.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2627410156","isCrawlerRequest":true}
