On May 11, 2026, Trump proposed suspending the federal gas tax. This market will resolve to "Yes" if legislation that would, at least temporarily, suspend the federal excise tax on gasoline is passed by both chambers of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by the specified date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Qualifying legislation may include joint resolutions and must pass both the House and the Senate, and must be signed by the President, become law without signature while Congress remains in session, or become law through veto override. Presidential pocket vetoes that expire will not qualify. The primary resolution sources for this market will be Congress.gov’s legislation tracker (https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/22), the Library of Congress (congress.gov), and other official information from the government of the United States; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Rising fuel prices driven by U.S. and Israeli military actions against Iran since February 2026 have prompted President Trump to propose a temporary suspension of the 18.4-cent-per-gallon federal gas tax, a move that would require congressional legislation to enact. Multiple bills introduced in the 119th Congress, including Republican-led measures for 90- to 180-day pauses, aim to offset pump costs amid ongoing supply disruptions, though lawmakers cite risks to Highway Trust Fund revenue for infrastructure. Historical precedent shows no prior federal gas tax suspension has passed, and current proposals face scrutiny over minimal per-driver savings versus broader fiscal impacts. Scheduled congressional committee reviews and potential floor votes in coming weeks could determine whether legislation advances before summer driving season peaks.
