What happened
Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry proposed a 90-day moratorium on U.S. diesel exports to combat rising domestic fuel costs. Separately, the Office of Louisiana Highway Construction completed the $2.12 million replacement of the LA 148 bridge in Jackson Parish, finishing the project six days ahead of schedule.

Why it matters
Industry leaders warn that restricting exports will create a bottleneck, forcing domestic refiners to scale back processing volume and potentially restricting the overall supply of gasoline. This action could artificially constrain fuel supplies and drive consumer prices up at the pump.
