AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Transportation Equity, Fairness, and Privacy Act of 2024," proposes several key changes to Maryland's transportation laws. It repeals the requirement to annually adjust motor fuel tax rates based on the Consumer Price Index, prohibits the state or local jurisdictions from imposing or levying a vehicle-miles-traveled tax or similar fees, and requires the Maryland Transit Administration to achieve a specific farebox recovery requirement (35% of total operating costs) for its bus, light rail, metro subway, and passenger railroad services. The bill also exempts the minimum fare price increases required to meet the farebox recovery requirement from the public hearing process.
