What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is reviewing a federal executive order issued by Donald Trump that temporarily expanded the use of red-dyed diesel on public roads through the end of the year. The federal order allows red-dyed diesel to be exempt from a 24.4 cent per gallon federal tax, a measure intended to lower costs for truckers and farmers facing high diesel prices. However, Pennsylvania has not yet decided whether to adopt the federal rules.
