Official release from The White House, not original reporting. Charges are allegations unless a conviction is stated.

Last night, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order that immediately cuts diesel costs by authorizing highway use of tax-free dyed diesel and deferring the federal diesel excise tax through the end of the year. The decisive action — expected to save drivers as much as $100 per fill — puts real money back in the pockets of farmers, ranchers, truckers, loggers, and working families at the exact moment harvest demands it most.

President Donald J. Trump : “Today, I am announcing another unprecedented step to bring down costs. For many years, farm vehicles, construction equipment, and other off-road vehicles have used what is known as ‘red dye’ diesel… which is exactly the same as normal diesel, but is sold tax-free for off-road vehicles and big trucks… Tonight, I am going to sign a historic Executive Order to officially waive the off-road requirement and allow anyone to purchase tax-free red dye diesel for any reason.”

Vice President JD Vance : “Another example of President Trump acting quickly to tackle an urgent issue. In this administration, we’re fighting every day to help hard working Americans, especially our farmers.”

White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles : “President Trump signed an Executive Order right here in Nebraska to lower diesel costs for American farmers, truckers, and workers. By expanding access to red-dyed diesel and providing federal tax relief, President Trump is once again taking decisive action to put money back in the pockets of hardworking Americans. Promises made. Promises kept.”
