Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent stated that the Trump administration is considering a ban on U.S. diesel exports. Bessent added that the administration is examining whether a full or partial ban would be feasible regarding the overall refining capacity. The proposal gained traction as President Trump stated he supported stopping diesel exports from the U.S. due to soaring fuel prices affecting American consumers.
