Congress legislates the Federal Gas Taxes and price per gallon, not a President, Congress passes laws that a President signs or vetos, but this Congress hasn't done any thing.Nothing! Have shutdown! Some states have raised and some, few, have lowered gas taxes! Oil Corporations have more then enough leases, many not in use, many tapped out! Consumers are not into wasting unlimited fuel supplies! Once agan. Congress didn't propse a mandated nation $2 fuel charge! Oil Corporations would die!
