Tim’s Observations:
Breaking news: President Joe Biden called on Congress on Wednesday to suspend the federal gasoline tax for 90 days, through the end of September.
The federal tax on gasoline is 18 cents per gallon, and 25 cents per gallon on diesel.
If approved, the tax suspension will save the average consumer between $2.16 and $2.70 per fill-up of regular gas. More on this gas tax suspension in Friday’s report.
