shortages in the Southeastern United States
following the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack.
We are ... evaluating every action
the Administration can take to mitigate the impact as much as possible, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, via statement.

the current developments have caused
concerns about rising gas prices.
Alabama, Florida and Georgia
may be the first to see an

Colonial Pipeline plans to bring its systems back online
and restart its operations by the end of the week
