Meetings and Metaverses 6/23/22

Big Oil executives head to Washington today for a meeting with the Biden Administration to go over a diminishing list of options to contend with the rising price of gas. President Biden announced plans to enact a “gas tax holiday” in the U.S. this summer, and has not received broad initial support. Amos Hochstein, State Department Special Envoy and Coordinator for International Energy Affairs, discusses the $0.18 reduction per gallon the holiday would save and the outlook for getting the policy through Congress. Mark Zuckerberg says a billion people will soon be spending their time – and money – in the metaverse, but Joe Kernen, Becky Quick and Andrew Ross Sorkin have differing ideas about what to actually do there. Plus, the FDA will ban the sale of Juul e-cigarettes. Squawk Box regular and former head of the regulator, Scott Gottlieb, weighs in on the vaping industry as well as the latest concerns about Covid-19 variants. And, more smaller cities will soon be harder to reach by airplane.
