Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-07

[00:00:00]By the time this tank of gas is full, you'll know why gas is so expensive and what we can do about it. In the last election, the American people voted to end these forever wars and make [music] life more affordable. Two months ago, the people in power started a new war in Iran, a war that nobody asked for, raising gas prices here at home. Here's what we can do. Every time you fill up your tank, you're paying a hidden tax.

[00:00:24]It's called [music] the federal gas tax.

[00:00:26]I'm proposing that we suspend it. That will immediately drop the price of gas by 18 cents a gallon. I'm also calling [music] to suspend the federal diesel tax. Everything you buy was shipped by diesel. Your groceries, your clothes, your medicine. Cheaper diesel means cheaper everything. Suspend the gas tax.

[00:00:45]Suspend the diesel tax and end this war in Iran so we can make [music] life more affordable.

[00:00:53]Oh my god.
