SEATTLE (AP) — The AAA auto club reports the average price of a gallon of gasoline in Washington is $3.92.
That’s 9 cents higher than the national average and up 4 cents in a week and 23 cents in a month.
Some prices for cities from the AAA’s survey for Monday:
Bellingham $4.02, Bremerton $3.96, Seattle-Bellevue-Everett $3.94, Olympia $3.96, Tacoma $3.93, Vancouver $3.85, Yakima $3.89, Tri-Cities $3.89 and Spokane $3.79.
Sens. Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell called a news conference Monday in Seattle to talk about the impact of high gas prices on families and businesses.
Cantwell has been asking federal regulators to prevent excessive speculation and market manipulation of fuel prices.
