NH Considering Raising the Gas Tax

Posted: Updated:
CONCORD, N.H. -

Vermont lawmakers are already considering it and now in New Hampshire where a House panel recommends raising the gas tax 15 cents over 4 years.

The AP reports the revenue would be used to pay for road and bridge improvements in the state.

As part of the proposal they would drop the idea to increase vehicle registration fees and spread the increase on diesel fuel over 6 years to ease the impact on trucking companies.

Next, the full House is expected to vote on the bill.
