A Ventura County assemblywoman will lead a new legislative committee to investigate why Californians are paying higher gas prices and whether the state can do anything about it. Assemblymember Jacqui Irwin, D-Thousand Oaks, said the new Select Committee on Gasoline Supply and Pricing will seek to "explain exactly why Californians are paying 25% more for gas compared to the national average.' 'I'm very concerned every time I drive by the gas station and I see these extremely high prices,' she said.
