Rep. Nancy Wilson, D-Missoula wants to raise gas tax by 5 cents a gallon
January 23, 2015 /
A Missoula lawmaker has introduced a bill to raise the state’s tax on gasoline by a nickel a gallon, dividing the proceeds between local streets and roads and public transportation.
Rep. Nancy Wilson, D-Missoula http://leg.mt.gov/css/Sessions/64th/leg_info.asp?HouseID=0&SessionID=109&LAWSID=15265 , is the sponsor of House Bill 275. The bill, introduced Thursday, will be heard by the House Transportation Committee next Wednesday.
It would be the first increase in the state tax on gasoline since 1994, Wilson said. It would not raise the current tax on diesel fuel.
