Maryland lawmakers weigh new EV taxes for roads funding
Original: Lawmakers eye new EV taxes to fund Maryland bridges, roads, highways
Maryland lawmakers are considering new taxes on electric vehicles to help fund the state's bridges, roads and highways. As more drivers switch to EVs, the state collects less in gasoline taxes that traditionally finance transportation infrastructure, prompting officials to explore alternative revenue sources targeting electric vehicle owners.
Why now: Declining gas tax revenue from EV adoption is pushing Maryland legislators to find new ways to fund transportation infrastructure.
