This video is for viewers living in the Southwest United States, especially Arizona, California, Nevada, and New Mexico, as well as anyone concerned about rising gas prices, fuel shortages, and cost-of-living pressures.
In this in-depth breakdown, Elizabeth Davis explains how California’s refinery shutdowns are triggering a regional fuel crisis that is now hitting Arizona hard. From sudden gas price spikes in Phoenix and Tucson to delivery delays and dry pumps in Flagstaff, this video reveals the hidden mechanics behind what many drivers are already experiencing at the pump.
You’ll learn how the closure of major California refineries, including Phillips 66 and Valero, wiped out over 280,000 barrels of daily refining capacity, and why the permanent shutdown of the San Pablo Bay pipeline made the situation even worse. This analysis shows why Arizona, a state with virtually no gasoline production of its own, is uniquely vulnerable to disruptions in California’s energy infrastructure.
The video also breaks down five critical factors behind the crisis: aggressive regulatory pressure, aging refinery infrastructure, collapsing crude oil supply chains, California’s unique boutique fuel requirements, and the ripple effect spreading across the entire Southwest. Using real data and on-the-ground examples, Elizabeth explains why prices are rising so fast and why shortages could become more frequent in the coming months.
Finally, this report outlines three possible scenarios for the next 6–12 months, ranging from a painful but manageable outcome to a full-blown nightmare involving rationing, emergency declarations, and economic disruption. If you drive, run a business, manage logistics, or simply want to protect your household budget, this video provides critical context you need to understand what’s coming next.
📌 Watch until the end to understand how this unfolding energy crisis could permanently reset fuel prices and daily living costs across the Southwest.
