"The U.S. House of Representatives passes legislation that fines energy companies up to $150 million for price gouging.

The Associated Press reports lawmakers were responding to anger over skyrocketing gas price and record oil industry profits.

The bill, which also includes criminal penalties for the companies, passed 389-34. It now goes to the Senate for consideration."
