Trump permits all Americans to buy tax-exempt diesel
President Donald Trump signed an executive order allowing American citizens to use red-dyed diesel, a tax-exempt fuel traditionally meant for agricultural machinery and outdoor equipment, by removing the requirement to use it only off paved roads. This move comes amid rising diesel prices, which have exceeded $6 per gallon, driven by the Russia-Ukraine war and a global refining capacity shortage. It is also noted that the price increase has been partly linked to green energy policies that led to the closure of refineries in the United States. Trump stated that he doesn't know much about this fuel but is optimistic that it is very good, while documents indicate that the war with Iran was not directly mentioned as a reason for the price rise, and the measures are intended to ease pressure on the market.
