N.Y. Senator Tackles Gas Station Price Gouging

Reporting
Don Dahler
NEW YORK (CBS) ― The rising price of gas has New York lawmakers trying to make sure drivers are getting what they pay for.

State senator Eric Adams said he'll propose a new law on Monday that will help the public report gas stations that are price gouging or not meeting state gas standards.

He said it's as simple as putting up a sign. "The public should not have to drive around the state burning gas trying to find out who to report it to. This information should be readily by the pump or by the pay station," Adams said.
 
Adams is also calling for stiffer penalties for those gas stations that are found to be price gouging or not meeting state fuel quality requirements.
