Prices have remained stable for the last two days By Mark Huffman Consumer News: Gas prices may have leveled off, at least for now of ConsumerAffairs May 11, 2026

The national average price of regular gasoline held steady at $4.52 a gallon for a second straight day, though prices remain $0.07higher than a week ago, as oil tops $100 a barrel amid the Iran conflict.

California drivers are paying the highest average price in the nation at $6.16 a gallon, while Oklahoma has the lowest average at $3.94.

The Trump administration is considering a temporary suspension of the federal gas tax to ease prices at the pump, but any gas-tax holiday would require approval from Congress.

Motorists are still feeling pain at the pump as gas prices continue to move higher. But according to data from AAA, the national average price of regular gas today is the same as yesterday.

AAA reports the average price is $4.52 a gallon. Though it's a fraction of a centless than the previous day, its $0.07a gallon more than it was a week ago.

Prices have continued to rise with the price of oil, which is now more than $100 a barrel, due to the war with Iran that has virtually stopped oil shipments from the Persian Gulf.
Price comparison

While $4.52 is the national average price of regular, motorists in some states are paying a lot more. Here are the five states where gasoline is most expensive:

California ($6.16)

Washington ($5.76)

Hawaii ($5.65)

Oregon ($5.32)

Nevada ($5.24)

Here are the five states where gas prices are the lowest:

Oklahoma ($3.94)

Mississippi ($3.98)

Texas ($4.03)

Nebraska ($4.04)

Georgia ($4.04)
Gas tax pause?

The Trump administration is weighing a temporary suspension of the federal gasoline tax,as officials search for ways to ease pressure on consumers facing sharply higher fuel prices driven by turmoil in global oil markets.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Sunday that the administration is open to all ideas when asked whether the White House would support a federal gas-tax holiday. The federal tax currently adds 18.4 cents per gallon to gasoline prices and 24.4 cents to diesel fuel.

Were open to all ideas, everything has tradeoffs, Wright said during an appearance on NBCs Meet the Press, adding that the administration is looking at all ideas to lower prices for American consumers and American businesses.
