According to Vox:
Last week, Biden called on Congress to suspend the federal gas tax for three months — a move that would lower gas prices by 18 cents per gallon. But the proposal for a gas tax holiday already looks to be dead. Republicans have remained firmly opposed, arguing the real problem is Biden’s climate agenda, and Democrats have also called it “shortsighted” to redirect the money away from roads.
That leaves Biden with just the limited powers of the bully pulpit to make a difference in costs.
That last sentence is where I stopped reading.
