Description

OLYMPIA — President Joe Biden on Wednesday urged Congress to suspend collection of federal taxes on gas and diesel for three months. And he called on state leaders to do the same, or something similar, to further help drivers cope with soaring pump prices. “I fully understand that a gas tax holiday alone is not going to fix the problem, but it will provide families some immediate relief — just a little bit of breathing room — as we continue working to bring down prices for the long haul,” Biden said. Federal taxes are 18 cents for gas and 24 cents for diesel. Not going to happen in Washington, where the tax on gas and diesel is 49 cents a gallon. Gov. Jay Inslee is steadfastly opposed. Greed and more taxes is Inslee plan of attack. Do you think it wise to sell our Emergency National oil reserves to foreign countries like China?
