President Biden's energy policies have hurt Americans at the gas pump as the crisis in Ukraine unfolds. It's time to expand energy production. 

Gasoline prices had already hit a record high the morning that President Joe Biden announced a ban on Russian energy imports on March 8.

The last time average gas prices topped $4 a gallon was in 2008, when George W. Bush was president.

By contrast, the Biden administration has been curbing oil and gas drilling. This means that today’s pain at the pump is unlikely to disappear anytime soon.
