Rep. Dean speaks with CNN about Iranian peace prospects, gas prices

Congresswoman Madeleine Dean of Glenside spoke with CNN today about the prospect of peace in Iran.

According to CNN’s live updates, President Donald Trump said the ceasefire with Iran ends “Wednesday evening Washington time.” Vice President JD Vance and top US officials are expected to depart Tuesday for Pakistan for a potential second round of talks.

Dean’s discussion began with U.S. gas prices.

“It looks like it will take a long time to bring these energy prices down. After all, we still have the Strait of Hormuz shut. I think the United States shut it, now Iran shut it, I’m not sure who has shut it,” she said. “Obviously the flows there are not working, so the prices aren’t going to come down any time soon. We need an end to this war.”
