AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to exclude passenger and freight rail projects from being funded by the petroleum products gross receipts tax increase enacted on October 14, 2016. Prior to this change, there was a requirement for a minimum annual appropriation of $25 million from the revenues and other funds of the authority for certain freight rail projects. This bill deletes that requirement and adds a new provision that prohibits using the revenues from the petroleum products gross receipts tax increase to fund any transportation projects related to passenger or freight rail service.
