This Week's White House Highlight

REMINDER: With President Trump back in the White House, we are excited to add a new feature to the newsletter! Each week, I will highlight an executive action, announcement, rulemaking, bill signing, or any other activity from the Trump Administration to keep you well-informed on what's happening in Washington.

Americans traveling for Labor Day weekend will see the lowest gas prices in at least five years and dipping airfare as President Trump delivers on his promises of lower prices, higher wages, and stable inflation.

It will be “the lowest price at the pump on Labor Day since 2020,” according to GasBuddy — and “motorists can expect more relief to arrive in the weeks ahead.”

Lower gas prices are part of a trend under the Trump Administration, which has taken relentless action to revive America’s energy capabilities and undo the Biden-era stranglehold on American energy production. Have a safe and joyous Labor Day as we celebrate the great American workforce!
