Gas getting cheaper: Under $3 per gallon in 31 states

The differences within the economic realm between the Biden administration and the Trump administration have already begun to become evident. The average price of a gallon of gasoline plummeted to $3.08 over the spring holiday period, despite the fact that this is a time of year when demand rises.

This figure implies that the average price for a gallon of gas dropped about $0.30: in August 2024, under the former president, it stood at $3.36.

It also saw a minimal decline from last week's average price, price per gallon was hovering around $3.10, according to an American Automobile Association (AAA) report.
