Louisiana governor declares state of emergency as diesel prices hit record highs

  • So what prevents the rest of the states from declaring a state of emergency and voiding the 24.4 cents for diesel, and 18.4 cents for standard fuel that is taxed by the federal government?

    Landry issued an executive order temporarily allowing dyed diesel, typically reserved for off-road vehicles, to be used in certain highway vehicles Cool. Solving a supply issue by suspending taxes. Supply and demand will not care Also gave a nice excuse to everyone to bee able to get caught with dyed fuel for quite a time. The dye will remain even after several fills
