Long line for gas in Robbinsville, North Carolina

It took only FOUR MONTHS for Joe Biden to ruin the US.

Governor Roy Cooper (D) declared a state of emergency over North Carolina’s gas shortage.

Under the emergency declaration, the state’s price gouging law is in effect and fuel regulations are temporarily suspended.

“The hackers who breached Colonial Pipeline’s systems have made it harder for hardworking North Carolinians to go about their lives, but I will not allow businesses to take advantage of this incident to charge excessive prices,” NC Attorney General Josh Stein said. “North Carolina’s price gouging law is in effect – please let my office know if businesses or people might be trying to profit off this situation so we can hold them accountable.”

“Today’s emergency declaration will help North Carolina prepare for any potential motor vehicle fuel supply interruptions across the state and ensure motorists are able to have access to fuel,” Cooper said in his statement on Monday.
