众议院民主党竞选委员会主席指责,由伊朗战争引发的“暴涨”油价是唐纳德·特朗普总统和国会共和党人“又一个违背的承诺”。
民主党国会竞选委员会(DCCC)主席苏珊·德尔贝恩众议员告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,众议院民主党将持续聚焦油价问题,作为他们负担能力议题宣传的一部分,以期在今年的中期选举中从共和党手中夺回众议院多数席位。
根据美国汽车协会(AAA)和GasBuddy的全国平均数据,美国汽油均价周二突破每加仑4美元,为四年来最高水平。
此次油价上涨正值美国和以色列对伊朗发动为期一个月的打击行动之际。作为回应,伊朗向多个波斯湾国家的能源设施发动了导弹和无人机袭击。伊朗还封锁了霍尔木兹海峡,使其几乎无法通行商业船舶,导致全球约20%的石油供应停滞,并推动全球燃油价格大幅上涨。

白宫称此次油价上涨是暂时的。
白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特周二在一份声明中表示:“‘史诗行动’完成后,油价将大幅回落至美国民众在这些短期 disruption 之前享受的多年低位。”
自伊朗冲突爆发以来,油价已大幅上涨,但汽油价格可能还会继续攀升
莱维特强调,“特朗普总统仍致力于全面释放美国能源主导地位,降低成本,让辛勤工作的美国家庭重新把更多钱装进腰包。”
油价上涨为民主党提供了更多攻击共和党的政治弹药。

民主党全国委员会周二上午发送的电子邮件标题写道:“突发:全国汽油价格飙升至每加仑4美元”。
民主党国会竞选委员会上周推出了数字广告,展示加油站价格上涨的画面,并配文“华盛顿共和党干的好事!”消息人士称,未来几周还将推出新一轮针对油价问题的广告。

德尔贝恩认为,“特朗普发动这场战争时没有考虑后果,我们看到全国各地的汽油价格暴涨,再加上家庭面临的物价上涨、住房、食品、医疗保健成本上升,所有这些都因为这位总统和国会共和党人的行动而上涨。”
共和党人正努力保住他们在众议院和参议院的微弱多数席位,他们面临着严峻的政治逆风,因为在华盛顿掌权的政党通常会在中期选举中丢失席位。他们还面临着由持续通胀、不受欢迎的伊朗战争以及特朗普低迷的支持率引发的艰难政治环境。

2024年选举中,对通胀的关注帮助特朗普和共和党取得了全面胜利,他们重新夺回白宫和参议院,并成功保住了众议院的微弱多数席位。
民主党对负担能力问题的高度关注,推动了2025年非大选年选举以及特朗普重返白宫以来14个月内的多场特别选举中的一系列胜利和超预期表现。
“负担能力是一个重大问题,”德尔贝恩强调。“民众感到愤怒、沮丧,他们在苦苦挣扎,他们需要真正站出来为他们着想的人。”

德尔贝恩认为,“这是总统又一个违背的承诺,他曾说过会在就任第一天就降低成本。这一直是一个违背的承诺……他还承诺不会发动无休止的战争,不会卷入这样的冲突。”
但民主党国会竞选委员会的对应机构——美国全国共和党国会委员会(NRCC)主席欢迎这场围绕负担能力的争论。
全国共和党国会委员会主席理查德·哈德逊众议员在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时,提到了《工薪家庭减税法案》中的减税政策。该法案是去年夏天由共和党全票通过并由特朗普签署成为法律的全面共和党国内政策法案。

随着报税截止日期临近,哈德逊表示:“那些加班工作、靠小费谋生的人,由于小费不征税、加班不征税的政策,他们的口袋里将会有更多的钱。”
“我们的政策正在让美国民众更加富裕,他们将会越来越真切地感受到这一点,”哈德逊强调。“这些都是特朗普总统做出的承诺。这些都是我们已经兑现的承诺。”

Democrats pounce on $4 a gallon gas, blame Trump’s Iran war for ‘broken promise’
March 31, 2026 10:58am EDT / Fox News
House Democrats’ campaign chair charges soaring gas prices ‘another broken promise’ from Trump
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chair Rep. Suzan DelBene, in a Fox News Digital interview, takes aim at Trump and the GOP over surging gas prices and the Iran war.

The House Democrats’ campaign committee chair charges that “skyrocketing” gas prices sparked by the Iran war are “another broken promise” by President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans.
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Chair Rep. Suzan DelBene told Fox News Digital that House Democrats will keep spotlighting gas prices as part of their affordability messaging as they aim to win back the chamber’s majority from Republicans in this year’s midterm elections.
The average price of gasoline in the U.S. topped $4 per gallon on Tuesday, according to national averages from AAA and GasBuddy, the highest level in four years.
The surge in gas prices comes amid the monthlong attacks on Iran by the U.S. and Israel. In response, Iran has targeted energy facilities with missile and drone attacks in a number of Persian Gulf nations. It has also made the Strait of Hormuz nearly impassable to commercial shipping, bringing roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply to a halt and sending global fuel prices sharply higher.

The White House says the surge in prices is temporary.
“When Operation Epic Fury is complete, gas prices will plummet back to the multiyear lows American drivers enjoyed before these short-term disruptions,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement on Tuesday.
OIL HAS SURGED SINCE THE IRAN CONFLICT BEGAN, BUT GAS PRICES MAY NOT BE DONE RISING
Leavitt emphasized that “President Trump remains committed to fully unleashing American energy dominance, lowering costs, and putting more money back in the pockets of hardworking American families.”
The gas price surge is giving Democrats more political ammunition to target the GOP.

“BREAKING: National Gas Prices Skyrocket to $4 Per Gallon,” read the headline from an email Tuesday morning from the Democratic National Committee.
The DCCC last week launched digital ads showing prices at the pump going up and an image saying “D.C. Republicans Did That!” Sources say to expect another round of ads on gas prices in the coming weeks.

DelBene argued that “Trump went into this war without thinking through the implications, and we’ve seen gas prices skyrocket across the country, on top of prices going up for families, housing, food, healthcare, all going up because of actions taken by this President and Republicans in Congress.”
As they fight to hold their slim majorities in both the House and Senate, Republicans are battling stiff political headwinds, as the party in power in the nation’s capital traditionally loses seats in the midterms. They also face a rough political climate fueled by economic concerns over persistent inflation, an unpopular war with Iran, and Trump’s underwater approval ratings.

A spotlight on inflation helped fuel sweeping victories by Trump and Republicans in the 2024 elections, when they won back the White House and Senate and successfully defended their slim House majority.
A laser focus on affordability by Democrats has fueled a slew of victories and overperformances in 2025’s off-year elections and in special elections in the 14 months since Trump returned to the White House.
“Affordability is a huge issue,” DelBene emphasized. “Folks are angry, they’re upset, and they’re struggling, and they need folks who are going to actually stand up and look out for them.”

DelBene argued that “this is yet another broken promise from the President saying that he’s going to lower costs on day one. That’s been a broken promise… And he promised no forever wars, that he wouldn’t get involved in a conflict like this.”
But DelBene’s counterpart at the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) welcomes the fight over affordability.
NRCC’s chair, Rep. Richard Hudson, in a Fox News Digital interview, pointed to tax cuts in the Working Families Tax Cuts, the name of the sweeping GOP domestic policy bill passed along party lines and signed into law by Trump last summer.

With the tax filing deadline quickly approaching, Hudson said, “Folks who work overtime, folks who work for tips, they’re going to see a lot more money in their pocket thanks to no tax on tips, no tax on overtime.”
“Our policies are making the American people more prosperous, and they’re going to start feeling it more and more,” Hudson emphasized. “And these are promises that President Trump made. These are promises that we’ve kept.”
