ICYMI: Evans Doubles Down on Support of Reckless Iran War

Since War Began in February, Gas and Diesel Prices Skyrocketed in Colorado

GREELEY, CO – As gas and diesel costs continue to rise in Colorado, Gabe Evans STILL backs the main cause of this price hike: Donald Trump’s forever war in Iran.

Last night at Colorado Sun’s Live Issue Interview, Evans doubled down on his support for the war, a conflict he has voted 100% in favor of. He denied the facts that the war is the main cause of gas and diesel price increases, instead blaming state and local regulations that experts say have little to do with the rise in cost.

Evans is such a strong supporter of the war that he supports Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who has been a driving force behind the conflict, and his potential candidacy for president in 2028. Out of all potential Republican nominees, Evans said that he “always liked” Rubio and thinks his policies, like entering forever wars that make fuel unaffordable, are “common sense.”

At the same forum, Manny Rutinel, Democratic nominee for Colorado's 8th Congressional District, lambasted the forever war caused by Trump and Evans. Rutinel said that on day one of his time in Congress, he will push for “a war powers resolution to bring an end to this war in Iran, so that we can bring our troops home and also lower gas and diesel prices.”
