Trump alivia impuestos al diésel y prepara directiva DPA para aumentar la producción de combustible

La Casa Blanca informó que el presidente Donald Trump está preparando un memorando para los jefes de departamento que activaría la Ley de Producción de Defensa para aumentar la producción de petróleo y diésel antes de las elecciones de noviembre. Días antes, la administración emitió una serie de órdenes ejecutivas para reducir el costo del diésel. Una orden permitió temporalmente el uso de diésel teñido de rojo, normalmente exento de impuestos de carretera, para camiones y agricultura hasta finales de 2026, y otra pospuso los pagos del impuesto federal sobre el combustible hasta el 31 de diciembre.

El Departamento del Tesoro indicó que evaluará las órdenes y esperaba su puesta en marcha en cinco días. Asociaciones del sector advirtieron que la medida ofrecía ahorros limitados y podría generar problemas logísticos y de responsabilidad para los distribuidores, con el objetivo de aliviar la carga fiscal de los usuarios de diésel.
