The law authorizing the gas tax allows drivers to get reimbursed the money they pay for the new tax, which this year is 2.5 cents per gallon.

If I have to pay more in taxes it only makes sense to get that money back

Do you pay more taxes than the socialist freebees that you receive, I doubt it.

Saving gas receipts could be a lot of work for not much payoff. This year's 2.5 cents would yield a reimbursement of $12.50 for someone driving 15,000 miles in a year in a vehicle averaging 30 miles per gallon. Show Less

I agree with the need for the gas tax increase. I disagree with the method it was achieved. Two votes that were misleading and that would send money to the State Patrol who already have a budget, with both votes being turned down by the citizens and then drove through by the Governor.

Max

My time is more valuable than the time it would take to get $30 bucks back doing that, I would rather help my State.

Letitia DenHartog

That minor raise in gas prices is needed for our roads.

Max

I don't always agree with you, but this time we are in lock step.

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Max

So, you support Iran? Well, I support America.

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

You need a more fuel-efficient car.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Max

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

Far bigger issues than fuel prices

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

Steve Baumann

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Fred

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

Max

You finally got one right. Did you have help?

Zaos Gonzolez

Your own safety is your own responsibility.
