<p style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;color:rgb(0,0,0);">Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) says he thinks "now is the time" to raise the gas tax, which hasn't been touched by Congress in over 20 years.

"I think now is the time to do it, but we ought to do it in a thoughtful way," Durbin said on Wednesday.

Durbin said he wasn't speaking for the entire Democratic caucus but noted two factors lawmakers should consider when opening up discussion on increasing the tax.
