Bill Summary

For legislation relative to gas tax disclosure. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 295C of Chapter 94 of the General Laws to require gas stations to disclose the amount of gas tax included in the price of gasoline, rather than allowing them to simply state that taxes are included without specifying the amount. The change aims to provide consumers with more transparent information about the gas tax component of the price they are paying at the pump.
