President Trump, who has been touting his tax cuts for weeks, on Wednesday endorsed a 25-cent hike in the federal tax on gasoline to help pay for infrastructure, according to a new report.

The comment came at a White House meeting with senior administration officials and a bipartisan group of lawmakers, Axios reported, citing sources.

“The gas tax has its pros and cons, and that’s why the President is leading a thoughtful discussion on the right way to solve our nation’s infrastructure problems,” a White House official told the Web site.

The federal gasoline tax is currently 18.4 cents a gallon for gas and 24.4 cents for diesel, and was last raised in 1993.

But the GOP-controlled Congress is unlikely to support such a steep hike, if any at all, with many members on record against it.
