A White House bid to address sky high fuel prices by allowing temporary expanded use of untaxed diesel will have a limited impact on businesses and consumers feeling the pain at the pump, experts say.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order while at a Nebraska campaign event on Monday allowing the sale of red-dyed diesel for use in on-road vehicles through the end of this year. Typically used in off-road vehicles like farm and construction equipment, the dyed fuel is exempt from the 24.4 cents per gallon federal diesel tax.
