Ohio's governor has signed legislation suspending the state gas tax for 90 days.

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has signed legislation into law suspending the state's gas tax for 90 days. The law removes the 38.5-cent-per-gallon tax on gasoline and the 47-cent-per-gallon tax on diesel through the end of the year, with lawmakers estimating Ohioans will save around 40 cents per gallon at the pump.

Both the Ohio House and Senate passed the emergency legislation to address prolonged high prices. The gas tax is normally used to fund Ohio's roads and transportation infrastructure.
