PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Gas prices have continued to skyrocket across the U.S., months after the government leveled sanctions against Russia for invading Ukraine — and prices at the pump in Oregon are still among those soaring.

In fact, Friday’s national average is $4.60/gallon compared to Oregon’s $5.19/gallon, according to AAA. Oregon’s average alone has risen more than $0.50/gallon since March.
