Why we checked itSpecific claim about Governor Lantz's past and current policy positions that can be verified against the record.
What we foundLamont did support a gas tax holiday in 2022 when prices were high, and by the time of the October 2026 debates he opposed one — but the claim omits that Lamont himself floated and initially supported a gas tax holiday in March 2026 before abandoning it, making the contrast more complex than stated.
CorrectedCorrection: The claim text now spells Governor Lamont's name correctly; the transcript heard "Lantz". The rating is unchanged.
