Bill overview
This bill proposed to exempt Massachusetts municipalities from collecting the state gas tax. Currently, the gas tax revenue is shared between the state and local governments. Supporters argued that removing the local share of the gas tax would provide municipalities with additional funding, allowing them to invest in local infrastructure and services. However, the bill ultimately failed to pass the legislature.
