STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand
A RESOLUTION urging Congress to investigate the rising prices of gasoline and diesel fuel and take appropriate action to decrease prices to consumers.
Whereas, prices for gasoline and diesel fuel have risen sharply in recent months; and
Whereas, many working families and senior citizens are enduring severe hardship as a result of the recent increase in petroleum prices; and
Whereas, New Hampshire fuel distributors are experiencing alarming supply shortages; and
Whereas, petroleum shortages and increased prices are endangering the economic well-being of not only consumers, but also fuel retailers and New Hampshire businesses in general; and
Whereas, the federal government stockpiled additional petroleum in the strategic petroleum reserve in anticipation of "Y2K"-related shortfalls; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the New Hampshire general court urges Congress to investigate the rising prices of gasoline and diesel fuel and take appropriate action to decrease prices to consumers; and
That copies of this resolution, signed by the speaker of the house of representatives and the president of the senate, be forwarded by the house clerk to the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and the President of the United States Senate.
