Chavez death could impact gas prices

Possible political unrest in Venezuela could have an impact on gas prices.

Erin Roth of the Wisconsin Petroleum Council says it's a concern, following the death of President Hugo Chavez earlier this week.

But Roth says U.S. imports from Venezuela have been declining in recent years, so the size of that impact remains to be seen. He says the country is offsetting that, with more oil from Canada, and increased production in the U.S.
