Trump Is Making Memorial Day Affordable Again

Americans are paying an average of about $3.18 per gallon for regular gas on Memorial Day 2025, down from $3.60 last year, according to AAA.
This price drop follows major supply disruptions caused by Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine and ongoing economic uncertainty linked to recent U.S. tariffs.
The White House attributes the lower prices to President Trump's 2025 energy emergency executive order and policies aimed at increasing American energy production.
However, GasBuddy's petroleum analyst Patrick De Haan said Trump's policies are not currently affecting prices, noting that lower crude costs and rising OPEC output drive prices down, while tariffs risk slowing the U.S. economy.
The combination of factors suggests prices could fall further this summer, but lower U.S. oil output and potential Iran sanctions relief may influence future supply and demand dynamics.
