The text inquires about the gas tax increase by Pritzker in the last 2 years.

The claims regarding Governor Pritzker's actions on gas taxes are evaluated based on provided evidence. Claim 1 is well supported by evidence showing that Pritzker did not lower the gas tax but delayed an increase planned for July 2022. Claim 2, however, does not have specific web evidence supporting or contradicting the claim about an unspecified increase amount. Thus, Claim 1 has a higher fact score due to strong corroborative evidence, while Claim 2 remains uncertain due to lack of specific information in the evidence.
