In a single month, Oregon gas prices jumped over 25-cents a gallon from $3.53 to $3.76.  This is due to refinery problems and seasonal gasoline blend mandates.

Yet, as seen by the chart above, Oregon has no room to spare on gas costs because it is already in the highest cost-of-gas states in America according to AAA.

This comes at the same the Oregon Legislature is considering a new 35-cent gas tax increase to pay for transportation mis-spending.
