Bill overview
This bill, the End Discriminatory State Taxes for Automobile Renters Act of 2019, aims to prevent states and localities from imposing taxes that unfairly target the rental of motor vehicles or the businesses involved. It defines what constitutes a ‘discriminatory tax’ – specifically, taxes that don't apply to more than 51% of similar rentals or businesses, or that have rates significantly higher than those applied to other commercial properties. The bill also establishes a process for individuals to seek legal remedies if they believe they’ve been unfairly taxed, and includes a provision allowing for the continuation of existing discriminatory taxes if they were in place at the time the bill was enacted and haven't changed.
