Pennsylvania Senate President pro tempore Jake Corman on March 21 introduced a bill that would slash the state’s gas tax—the nation’s highest at 59 cents per gallon—by one-third, making Pennsylvania the 21st state with proposed legislation or pending executive actions attempting to offer consumers relief at the pump.
Senate Bill 10, “The Consumer Gas Prices Relief Act,” would trim between 19 and 20 cents a gallon in state sales taxes through Dec. 31.
