NO — No Band Aid will fix this !!

Problem is not gas tax. Private enterprise was run over on Jan 21st, 2021.

There is no need for gas taxes for the highway fund, since after they shut down the refineries there won’t be asphalt to pave highways with.

No way. 81 million voters are getting what they asked for. Robbing the highway trust fund no matter how mismanaged it may be is not a market solution. Nope. 81 million get what they asked for, good and hard too.

Cancel Congress instead. That would save us $trillions.

The Democrats are NEVER going to give up a tax. They use the power of taxation as a weapon to destroy the American economy and what better time for them to attack our economy than right now?

Biden’s handlers inflict pain on the country. The Democrat Media laughs like it is funny.

Gas dropped a whopping 10 cents last night, so I’m guessing the low,info masses feel as though this was a gift to,them personally from Biden, and will fall at his feet in stunned appreciation

The lame stream media will be playing up,the drop as some sort of brilliant move on bidens part.

Let’s see, Democrats responsible for $2-$3 per gallon increase in gas prices. Now, Democrats want to reduce that by $0.18 and claim to be heroes. Sadly, the press would support that, saying it shows how much they “care”, and many dummies would believe them.

Critics of the proposals say there is no guarantee the savings would get passed on to consumers and worry that suspending gas taxes could hurt funding for road projects.

Well, they could just let US and Canada make gas to lower the price.

Besides, when is there ever a guarantee that reduced costs end up passed on to consumers. ==strawman==

The thing that needs to be suspended is Biden.

SMDH! Fookin’ idjits! But for some voters, it will be good enough. For filling up my truck, I might save around $4 per fill. Booze is cheaper in some cases.

People need to really think. If the government can choose to engage in pavlovian reward and punishment policies, just what do you think is the next logical step? Jeezy.

How about a tax credit per kilowatt of electric use? That would move people who may be buying a new car into buying an electric one?

OH wait.....that would blow up the electrical grid. Anyone want to do the math on energy conversion of electric car miles kilowatt consumption on 81 million cars and the current total kilowatt outputs of all the nation's PowerPoint generation divided by 24, so you get capacity per hour?

Gov dumb dumb of Minnesota had been pushing raising our states gas tax since elected.

He’s also up for reelection this year.

Clearly a coincidence right?
