House Dems Introduce Bill to Tax Middle Class On Mileage (Land Line Mag)<br /><br />House Democrats introduced a new tax on the middle class. This latest proposal will tax Americans for the amount of miles they travel.<br /><br />A bill up for consideration in the U.S. House seeks to change the way highway users are taxed to fund transportation.<br /><br />Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-OR, introduced a bill that would establish a federal pilot program to study vehicle miles traveled, or VMT, as a possible supplement to or possible replacement for the current per-gallon fuel tax. The bill, HR3311, does not specify what would happen to the fuel tax if a VMT program were established.<br /><br />“The current system of levying federal taxes on trucks is as discriminatory as it can be to small business, and harmful, but there are lots of unanswered questions with a VMT. And those questions need to be resolved before we start launching down that path,” OOIDA Executive Vice President Todd Spencer told Land Line.<br /><br />Blumenauer is calling for the establishment of working groups to study technology – possibly a GPS system – and other factors that would go along with a federal VMT program. <br /><br />Blumenauer said roads and bridges need a boost, and VMT is one way to get cash flowing into the Highway Trust Fund.<br /><br />“America’s infrastructure needs critical investments now, and with the Highway Trust Fund flirting with a dangerous deficit, we need innovative solutions that will create a steady source of revenue,” Blumenauer said in a statement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-73463691336033178042009-08-04T09:13:50.286-07:002009-08-04T09:13:50.286-07:009:09 AM The entire pretext.9:09 AM The entire pretext.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-51956644494559121672009-08-04T09:13:25.052-07:002009-08-04T09:13:25.052-07:00Morning radio discussion, “ The elected officials ...Morning radio discussion, “ The elected officials taking heat for Obamacare, are not used to be questioned by their constituents.
