Plain-language change summary

The bill SB 247 has been updated to increase the minimum price per gallon from $2.39 to $2.67. This change means that the lowest price allowed will be higher, which could impact consumers' costs but may also reflect the need to support local suppliers or reflect rising costs in the market. Overall, this adjustment raises the baseline price and could influence how prices are set in the future.
