美国共和党参议员查克·格拉斯利周日在社交媒体上提议，特朗普政府应当实施1970年代风格的柴油和农产品出口禁令，以帮助农民应对价格上涨的压力。1格拉斯利表示，"如果我们的政府可以向中国禁运芯片，就可以禁运柴油来帮助美国农民和卡车司机"。1美国柴油平均价格周日为6.51美元，较一年前上涨近3美元。1
农民对特朗普政府的多项政策感到愤怒，包括关税提高农资成本、特朗普政府允许30万公吨海外牛肉修整品进入美国以降低关税从而压低国内生产者价格，以及伊朗局势导致的成本上升。1共和党农村政治人物面临农民投票基础流失的风险，部分盟友已公开与特朗普政策相左。1例如，艾什利·欣森最近调整了竞选策略，强调跨党派工作并反复反对影响农民的总统关税政策。1
不过，能源部长伯格姆和国家能源主导委员会执行主任亚罗德·艾根在G20休斯敦会议上排除了实施柴油、汽油或原油出口禁令的可能性。1
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley called on the Trump administration to impose an export ban on diesel fuel to help American farmers cope with surging costs.1 In a social media post on Sunday, Grassley proposed implementing a 1970s-style export prohibition on diesel and agricultural products, arguing that "if our government can ban chip exports to China, it can ban diesel to help American farmers and truck drivers."1 The average price of U.S. diesel reached $6.51 per gallon on Sunday, up nearly $3 from a year earlier.1
Farmers are increasingly frustrated with multiple Trump administration policies that have driven up their costs and squeezed their profits.1 The administration allowed 300,000 metric tons of foreign beef trimmings to enter the United States, a move that has depressed domestic producer prices.1 Additionally, farmers face higher input costs due to increased tariffs and rising expenses stemming from tensions with Iran.1 The discontent poses a political risk for Republican rural figures, with some allies now publicly breaking ranks with Trump's policies.1 Recently, Ashley Hinson adjusted her campaign strategy to emphasize bipartisan cooperation and repeatedly opposed presidential tariff policies affecting farmers.1
However, the Trump administration has signaled resistance to such trade restrictions. Energy Secretary Bergum and Jarrod Agen, executive director of the National Energy Leadership Council, ruled out implementing export bans on diesel, gasoline, or crude oil during a G20 meeting in Houston.1
