As Americans prepare for Labor Day weekend 2025, gasoline prices are projected to average just $3.15 per gallon—the lowest holiday pump price since 2020. It marks the cheapest holiday travel stretch in five years, with the drop credited to the Trump Administration’s aggressive push for energy independence.
Details & Background
According to GasBuddy and the U.S. Energy Information Administration, gas prices are down 5% compared to last year, thanks to a surplus in global crude supply and seasonal shifts to cheaper winter-grade blends. Analysts predict prices may dip below $3 per gallon this fall. Trump appointees like Energy Secretary Chris Wright and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt point directly to dismantling Biden-era regulations as the reason Americans are saving at the pump.
Reactions

GasBuddy experts called it “Cheapest summer to hit the road since 2020,” forecasting even more relief ahead. Domestic airfares are down 6%, hotels down 11%, and car rentals down 3%—travel is truly getting affordable again.
