FACT CHECK: Paul Hodes on Gas Prices
By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com ReporterPaul Hodes, July 14, 2008
"We need real solutions to record high gas prices for New Hampshire families, not more of the same failed policies that got us into this crisis with record prices at the pump and record profits for big oil."
FACT: Hodes supports "same failed policy" barring offshore oil development.
FACT: Hodes supports "same failed policy" barring oil exploration in Alaska.
FACT: Hodes supports "same failed policy" of ethanol subsidies and mandates.
Statement from Grant Bosse regarding Paul Hodes' failure to address rising gas prices:
"Paul Hodes continues to oppose each and every step we could take to increase supply and bring competition to our energy markets. Paul Hodes supports higher taxes on gas, supported last year's awful energy bill, and voted for the bloated Farm Bill that boosted ethanol subsidies." Grant Bosse

Quote of the Day
"I am sorry to say that we will not be able to accommodate your request for tickets to the Presidential Inauguration. Our office received an extremely high number of requests for tickets and a very limited number of tickets. Unfortunately, this meant that we could not satisfy all of the requests for tickets."
Michael Brown, U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter's chief of staff, telling people they are not getting a ticket for the presidential inauguration.
