Gas Prices and the Economy

10:00 Drivers may be pleasantly surprised by the recent fall in gas prices. These days a gallon is well under $3 in the U.S.--the lowest since 2009.  But OPEC leaders won't stop production any time soon, and small American oil producers and oil-based state economies could take a hit. We'll discuss what low prices mean for the economy this hour.

Guests

  • Chris Mooney, environment reporter  at Washington Post
  • Brydon Ross, vice president of state affairs at Consumer Energy Alliance
  • Tom Stewart, executive vice president of the Ohio Oil and Gas Association
