President Trump Issues Order on Dyed Diesel Fuel Use and Tax Deferral

President Donald J. Trump has signed an Executive Order temporarily permitting the use of off-road "dyed" diesel for highway purposes and deferring its federal excise tax. This measure aims to reduce costs for American consumers, particularly farmers and truckers. The order also directs the Treasury Secretary to defer tax payments for on-road dyed diesel for the remainder of the year and instructs other agencies to ensure access and coordination.
