Democrats in both chambers have been brainstorming ideas on legislation to lower gas prices after they reached record-high levels last week.
- Other ideas being discussed include stimulus checks, using more ethanol to lower the demand for oil, and canceling oil companies’ federal leases that aren’t actively being used, the senior Democratic aide told Axios.
- Various Democrats have also already introduced bills that would suspend the federal gas tax; raise taxes on oil companies to fund means-tested assistance; or provide a federal rebate whenever gas prices get above $4 per gallon.
All they need to do is reinstate Donald Trump’s policies. The economy was doing great under Trump but they won’t.
