Evidence

The campaign released an ad featuring Vice President Kamala Harris speaking to Alsobrooks' record and her commitment to lowering costs and creating opportunity for all Marylanders.

Campaign materials documented a broad promise to lower costs; the provided gas-price claim fits within that affordability pledge, though this item does not itself name gasoline.

Alsobrooks said she voted for War Powers Resolutions to end the President's war with Iran and stated that gas prices had dramatically spiked, ending with: End the war. Save American lives. Lower our costs.

As senator, Alsobrooks took a vote she explicitly tied to lowering costs and responding to spiking gas prices. The source shows effort, not a completed price reduction.

Alsobrooks voted Yea on the motion to discharge S.J.Res.114, a joint resolution to direct removal of U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities against Iran; the motion was rejected 46-51. She also voted Yea on Hickenlooper amendment No. 4956, relating to protecting consumers from price increases associated with tariffs and the Iran war; that motion was rejected 47-51.

Official voting records show concrete votes connected to gas-price drivers, but both efforts failed. Under the prompt rules, failed attempts count as non-delivery while still earning an effort badge.

The release says Senator Alsobrooks also filed amendments including an amendment that would direct the Senate to work to reduce gas prices.

Her office reported filing a gas-price-related budget amendment. This is a direct effort toward the promise, but the source does not show enactment or actual lower prices.

Senate floor activity records amendment SA 5294 proposed by Senator Alsobrooks, a point of order raised against it, the motion to waive budget discipline rejected 47-51, and amendment SA 5294 ruled out of order by the chair.

The official floor record confirms one Alsobrooks cost-related amendment was procedurally defeated. It supports effort but not fulfillment.

EIA-sourced weekly data showed U.S. regular retail gasoline at $4.49 per gallon for the week of May 18, 2026, up from $3.12 one year earlier.

By late May 2026, national regular gasoline prices were higher year over year, so available price data does not show the promised reduction had been achieved.

never same_term A for effort

Alsobrooks took same-term Senate actions tied to reducing gas prices, including filing a gas-price-related budget amendment and voting for measures she linked to lowering costs. But the cited measures were rejected or ruled out of order, and the available price evidence shows gasoline prices were higher year over year by May 2026. This supports serious effort but not fulfillment of the promised outcome.
