Biden says he's nearing decisions on gas tax holiday and student loans as he tries to tame costs

President Joe Biden said Monday he hopes to decide soon whether to support a temporary pause in the federal gasoline tax and is nearing a decision on student loan relief as he looks to ease the burden of high prices on Americans.

"I hope to have a decision based on the data I'm looking for by the end the week," Biden told reporters by the seaside in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, when asked whether he was considering backing a gas tax holiday.
