    Chairman Gensler,

    I am writing to voice my concern regarding the rising fuel costs that our country is currently experiencing. I recently went back to work to help our family financially due to the economy and the inability to make ends meet. I currently drive over 30 minutes to work and am finding it difficult to put gasoline in my vehicle due to the increase in cost. I am not alone. So many Americans had to return to work or take second jobs to make ends meet and now we encounter this. Oil companies are experiencing record profits while we, the American consumer, are going through some of the roughest financial time in our lives. It is time to put a stop to this. Sen. Brown believes one way to reduce prices at the pumps is to impose limits on oil speculators. I would like this to be instated along with any other measures to stop the increase of gasoline prices so that the American people can finally get to financial stability.

    Thank you.
