Measured timeline

📍 How it ended

US gasoline prices fell for a sixth consecutive week, dropping 14% from their May peak. This decline occurred as US-Iran diplomacy and a framework deal eased oil supply fears.

While prices decreased in various regions, inflation concerns remained and Washington state transportation revenue fell short despite a gas tax increase.
