Fuel Prices, Faith & Politics | Gas Tax Debate and Pastor Conviction (Ep 733)
Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson
A growing push in Washington could bring relief at the gas pump — but not everyone in Congress is on board.
Support is building on Capitol Hill for a federal gasoline tax holiday after Donald Trump publicly endorsed the idea earlier this week. Advocates say it could provide immediate relief for struggling families facing rising fuel costs, while critics warn it could drain a major source of transportation funding. We break down the debate and what it could mean for your wallet.
Meanwhile, a case out of Northern Ireland is drawing international attention. A 78-year-old retired pastor has been convicted and fined after preaching a gospel message near a hospital, raising serious questions about free speech, religious liberty, and public expression of faith.
