GasBuddy survey shows Texas gas prices increasing
SAN ANGELO, Texas (Concho Valley Homepage) — On June 9, GasBuddy Inc is reporting that Texans are paying more for gas this week than they did last week.
According to GasBuddy's survey of 13,114 gas stations in Texas, the average gasoline prices in Texas have risen 3.5 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $2.70 per gallon.
On June 8, the cheapest station in Texas was priced at $2.23 per gallon while the most expensive was $3.59 per gallon. That is a difference of $1.36 per gallon.
'Average gas prices declined in nearly all states over the last week as refineries ramped up output and gasoline supplies surged,' said Patrick De Haan, Head of Petroleum Analysis at GasBuddy. 'While a few states experienced price cycling — a pattern where prices drop sharply and then spike every couple of weeks — the overall gentle downward trend is typical as summer progresses. If oil prices continue to rise gradually, it could eventually impact gas prices, but for now, we likely won't see any major shifts at the pump in most areas this week.'

Your CBD Store and Small Business Owners Call on Governor Abbott to Veto SB 3, Citing Devastating Economic Consequences
Sunmed™ | Your CBD Store® urges Texas Governor Greg Abbott to Veto Senate Bill 3 AUSTIN, Texas, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunmed™ | Your CBD Store®, along with its small business hemp retailers across the state, are urging Governor Greg Abbott to veto Senate Bill 3 (SB 3) in account of depriving law-abiding small businesses the opportunity to offer Texans wellness and therapeutic products that foster the Texas economy. Unless Governor Abbott issues a veto against it, SB 3 will ban most hemp-derived cannabinoid products currently sold at over 7,500 licensed retail establishments throughout Texas. Sunmed | Your CBD Stores are owned by independent small businesses that rely on the sale of legal and wellness hemp-derived cannabinoid products to make a living and support their families. Ralph Paul, who owns a Sunmed | Your CBD Store in Keller, Texas, warns: "If SB 3 is signed into law, I'll have no choice but to shut down my businesses. This isn't just about product bans, it's about laying off employees, defaulting on leases, and losing everything we've built. We operate legally and transparently under the Texas Hemp Program. We don't deserve to be collateral damage in a political agenda." Across the state, retailers are bracing for closures. Gary Brandt, owner of a Sunmed | Your CBD Store in Lakeway, Texas, adds: "I've invested my savings, hired local staff, and served customers who depend on our wellness products. This bill doesn't just hurt businesses, it devastates families, communities, and the state's fiscal health. We're urging Governor Abbott to veto SB 3 and stand with small businesses." According to the 2025 Economic Impact of Hemp Cannabinoid Processing and Manufacturing on Texas report by Whitney Economics, the hemp-derived cannabinoid industry is a cornerstone of the Texas economy: 53,300 Texans employed $2.1 billion in wages paid $5.5 billion in revenue generated $267 million in retail sales tax contributed $10–10.5 billion total economic impact The Whitney report underscores that this industry's influence extends beyond storefronts and into rural farming, supply chains, distribution, and manufacturing. Over 8,500 total licenses, spanning retail, wholesale, and manufacturing, will be rendered obsolete. Sunmed | Your CBD Store and its affiliate network support responsible regulation and consumer safety. However, SB 3 amounts to a prohibition and wipes out a thriving, tax-contributing industry that operates under a clear legal framework. Call to ActionWe urge all Texans to oppose SB 3.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act delivers for America. Now the Senate Must Deliver Too.
Editor's note: The views expressed by contributors are their own and not the view of Conchovalleyhomepage. (Concho Valley Homepage) — The House of Representatives has delivered on the American people's mandate by passing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the most comprehensive and consequential set of conservative reforms in our nation's history. This transformative package includes record levels of tax cuts, spending reduction, and border and national security investment. The ball is now in the Senate's court and their mission is simple: move the One Big Beautiful Bill to the president's desk as soon as possible. This legislation delivers a historic tax cut and $5,000 raise for the average American family to provide immediate relief to working households struggling after four years of economic mismanagement under the Biden administration. It permanently expands the 2017 Trump tax break for small businesses, the backbone of our economy, and enhances incentives for American companies to invest, grow and raise worker wages for decades to come. The bill's impact extends beyond the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act by providing additional relief to lower- and middle-income Americans by eliminating taxes on tips, exempting overtime pay and doubling the tax credit for seniors on a fixed income. Additionally, we support working families by increasing the child tax credit to $2,500 per family, making interest on car loans tax deductible and expanding health savings accounts. We're strengthening America's security by investing $46 billion to complete President Trump's border wall and hiring 18,000 new immigration enforcement personnel to detain and deport at least 1 million illegal immigrants annually. We're committing almost $150 billion to rebuild America's military, including $34 billion to revitalize our naval fleet and $25 billion for missile defense. Furthermore, we're unleashing American energy dominance by opening federal lands for drilling, reducing the regulatory stranglehold on conventional fuels, and eliminating hundreds of billions in green new deal subsidies that have made U.S. energy more expensive and less reliable. And we're accomplishing all of this while reducing spending by $1.6 trillion, the largest spending reform package in American history by two-fold. This isn't just fiscal responsibility; it's the beginning of a generational reset that will restore America's financial health. At every stage of this process, Democrats have resorted to fear-mongering and false claims to undermine this critical legislation. So desperate to derail the bill, they manipulated Congressional Budget Office analyses to mislead the American people about the outcomes of the One Big Beautiful Bill. They use the fact that we prohibit illegal immigrants and able-bodied adults who refuse to work from receiving taxpayer-funded welfare services to fallaciously suggest that vulnerable people are being 'ripped away' from the social safety net. Furthermore, they deliberately cherry-pick CBO data to spread the false narrative that our tax cuts only benefit the wealthy. Never mind the fact that CBO's own data confirm that American households in every tax bracket would see increased after-tax income under our legislation. The left knows they can't convince the American people on the substance of this bill, so they have resorted to fabrications. The Senate now holds America's economic future in its hands. The House spent months developing a balanced budget reconciliation bill that advances every pillar of the America First vision, including restoring our nation's fiscal health by reining in the runaway spending and reducing our debt-to-GDP ratio. While the Senate may be able to make modest improvements, they must resist the temptation to significantly alter this carefully crafted legislation. Any major changes risk upsetting the delicate balance struck in the House and derailing President Trump's America First agenda. In fact, every day the Senate delays this process is another day closer to tax hikes for working families, uncertainty for small businesses, and a military and border patrol lacking the resources they need to be successful. The American people gave President Trump and unified Republican leadership a clear mandate to reverse course on the failures of the last four years — they expect action, not endless deliberation. The House has delivered. Now it's time for the Senate to meet this moment with the urgency it demands. America's next Golden Age is within reach — but Republicans must come together in order for us to seize it.
