What it does
The Gas Tax Reduction Act would withhold 8% of certain federal highway funds from states that maintain a gasoline tax of $0.50 per gallon or higher, beginning after the first fiscal year following the bill’s enactment. It targets states’ compliance with a gas tax restriction by penalizing those that do not lower their gasoline taxes below the specified threshold. The bill affects state governments receiving federal transportation funding under Title 23 of the United States Code. Its primary mechanism is a financial penalty tied to state-level gas tax policy.
