Senate Majority Leader John Thune told reporters at the Capitol he is willing to explore a diesel export ban if it could ease prices, though he suggested reopening the Strait of Hormuz would be more ideal. National average diesel prices as of Tuesday stood at $6.26 per gallon.
“We'll be looking at any proposal that is a viable solution, but I do think if we have the supply in this country and we're exporting it right now, that might be one way of getting at it”
