# President Trump Is Delivering Needed Economic Relief

The White House
March 17, 2025

Americans are continuing to see the benefits as the economic agenda of President Donald J. Trump and his administration comes into focus. After years of soaring prices and economic pain, the Trump Administration’s focus on cutting regulations and unleashing American energy is leading to stability for Americans’ bottom lines.

EGGS: The average wholesale price of eggs recorded another huge drop today as the Trump Administration fulfills its plan for long-term affordability by reversing the previous administration’s flawed approach.

- On January 21, 2025, the wholesale price for eggs was $6.55/dozen; today, it’s $3.45/dozen — a $3.10/dozen (–47.3%) decrease.
- The average wholesale price for eggs has declined for three straight weeks.

GAS: The nationwide average for gas continues falling as the Trump Administration implements its American energy agenda.

- The nationwide average for gas has declined for four straight weeks — down ten cents from one month ago and 42 cents from one year ago.
- More than two-thirds of gas stations in the U.S. have gas at $2.99/gallon or less, according to GasBuddy.
- Average gas prices are currently at their lowest level for March in four years. At this point in Biden’s presidency, gas prices had already gone up 49 cents.
- Average prices are below $3/gallon in a majority of states.
