President Biden proposes suspending the federal 18 cent per gallon gas tax. The tax is much higher in California, will this force them to change their mind? Many CA Democrats like GomezForAD80 even campaigned on opposition to suspending the gas tax.
WASHINGTON D.C. – Gas prices, inflation and cost of living are at all time highs, and Americans are struggling to pay their bills.
Americans didn’t buy the Putin excuse, and Biden has finally acknowledged that people need help. Wednesday, he called on Congress to suspend the federal gas tax for three months, which is about 18 cents per gallon. This won’t make Americans feel more financially comfortable, but at least the Biden Administration is acknowledging the problem.
California Republican Assemblyman Kevin Kiley has introduced a proposal to suspend the state gas tax for a year amid skyrocketing prices, and the Democrat led Assembly has voted it down each time.
