North Dakota lawmakers are considering a fuels tax hike to help pay for improvements to roads and bridges.
The House Finance and Taxation Committee on Monday voted 9-5 to endorse House Bill 1464, which would result in a tax increase of 6 cents per gallon on motor vehicle fuel sold in North Dakota. The panel of lawmakers amended the original proposal, which sought a 4 cent increase.
The amended bill also would require electric and hybrid vehicle drivers to pay a road use fee more than double the existing level. The measure next moves to the full House for consideration. I don t think anybody sitting here enjoys the need to raise any tax, but what are we to do? said Rep. Craig Headland, R-Montpelier, who chairs the committee. We have roads that are crumbling and we haven t had an increase in 16 years.
