Official summary
Abstract published by the legislature (via Open States). Text as published by the legislature; reproduced verbatim.
For the purpose of reducing transportation costs, the bill repeals the following fees, effective July 1, 2025: The road usage fee imposed by the state and the bridge and tunnel impact fee imposed by the statewide bridge and tunnel enterprise that are imposed on the purchase of each gallon of taxed gasoline and special fuel; The fee imposed by the state on short-term motor vehicle rentals; The passenger per-ride fees imposed on car share rides by the state, the clean fleet enterprise, and the nonattainment area air pollution mitigation enterprise; and The waste tire enterprise fee imposed on the purchase of new motor vehicle and trailer tires by the waste tire management enterprise. Because this fee is the only source of revenue for the waste tire management enterprise, the bill also repeal the enterprise. The bill also requires the nonattainment area air pollution mitigation enterprise, no later than January 1, 2026, to establish a reformulated gasoline cost stabilization program to offer reformulated gasoline cost stabilization rebates to individuals who own motor vehicles that are registered in counties in which the federal government requires all gasoline sold to be reformulated gasoline. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
