Another State Moves Toward Gas Tax Reform

Tennessee is primed to be the next state to support gas tax reform. Here’s what’s happening in the home of the Volunteers:

  • Republican Governor supports gas tax reform
  • State Comptroller report says the gas tax isn’t meeting transportation needs  
  • Transportation Coalition of Tennessee formed 
    • its a bunch of organizations representing construction, local governmental entities, engineers, American Heart Association, AARP and more

To meet the 20 cent level of 1989, the new gas tax will need to be 38 cents.
