Chamber of Deputies Finance Committee raises price of oil by 96 US cents

I must say, I was pretty surprised and almost impressed when, in an obvious attempt to save face, Fecal promised to delay the increase in gas prices included in his new Tax Reform. He even claimed that the decision was based on his interest in not hurting low-income families. Anyway, it looks like Fecal pulled a fast one on us.

The president of the Chamber of Deputies Finance Committee, Jorge Estefan Chidiac, said that members of the committee have reached an agreement to raise the price of a barrel of oil by 96 U.S. dollar cents.

As of now, this is all the info I've been able to track down on the subject. I'll be sure to keep you updated with any developments as, or if, they surface in the next few days.
