Introduced Text

Pennsylvania HB898 mandates transparency in automotive and diesel fuel taxes by requiring retailers to label fuel dispensers with tax rates.

Pennsylvania HB898 amends Title 3 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to require retailers of automotive fuel and diesel fuel to label dispensers with the current tax rates levied on consumers. These include the federal liquid fuels tax, state liquid fuels tax, federal diesel fuel tax, and state diesel fuel tax, as well as the aggregate rates of these taxes. The Department of Agriculture is tasked with affixing and maintaining these labels in a consistent location on fuel dispensers. The department may not charge retailers for initial or replacement labels if they become illegible.
