2014 House Bill 5477

Senate Roll Call 662: Passed

To replace the current 19-cent per gallon gas tax and 15-cent diesel tax with a 9.5 percent wholesale fuel tax, gradually increasing to 15.5 percent in 2018. When fully phased-in this would represent a tax hike of around $1.2 billion at current wholesale fuel prices, more than doubling current fuel taxes to 41 cents per gallon.
