Why California's gas prices are high

California’s high gas prices remain near record levels, with an average of $6.14 per gallon, significantly higher than the national average of $4.30 and Hawaii’s $5.63. Despite Hawaii’s reliance on imported fuels, California’s prices are driven by state policies that restrict fuel imports, green mandates, and increased taxes, which the state has chosen to impose. These policies have led to California refining less of its own fuel and creating a sense of energy isolation, contributing to significantly higher costs.
