Donald Trump signed an executive order allowing the sale of red-dyed diesel for use in on-road vehicles through the end of this year. This fuel, typically used in off-road equipment, is exempt from the 24.4 cents per gallon federal diesel tax. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins stated that farmers would save $640 million on federal and state taxes in the last quarter of the year.
