Urges AG to investigate possibility of price-fixing in sale of motor fuels.

This Senate resolution urges New Jersey's Attorney General to investigate whether price-fixing or other anticompetitive behavior contributed to a sharp rise in motor fuel prices in March 2026. The bill directly affects state residents and businesses by requesting an official inquiry into potential market manipulation that may have caused gasoline prices to increase by approximately 65 cents nationally and 58 cents in New Jersey within one month. The resolution requires the Attorney General to examine the sale of motor fuels for anticompetitive conduct and report findings to the Governor and Legislature at the earliest possible date. This measure focuses on ensuring transparency and accountability in the fuel market without determining whether price-fixing actually occurred.
