The North Dakota House has passed a bill that adds another 3 cents per gallon to the state’s gas tax to help pay for improvements to roads and bridges. The tax hasn’t been raised in North Dakota since 2005. If the Senate approves, adding 3 cents to the current 23-cent a-gallon gas tax would still keep it below surrounding states. The proposal also raises the annual fee on electric vehicles from $120 to $200, on hybrid vehicles from $50 to $100 and on electric motorcycles from $20 to $50. The bill would generate about $44 million in additional revenue over a two-year budget cycle.
By comparison the gas tax rate in Minnesota is 28.6 cents….30 cents a gallon in South Dakota….and 32.75 cents in Montana.
