Bill > HCR2035

This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution that would prohibit state and local governments from imposing taxes or fees based on vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and from monitoring or limiting vehicle miles driven without voluntary consent. Specifically, the resolution would prevent any government entity from charging people based on how many miles they drive or tracking their vehicle mileage, with two key exceptions: interstate agreements related to commercial vehicle fuel taxes or registration fees, and vehicles owned by government entities themselves. The proposed constitutional amendment would be placed on the ballot for voters to approve, and if passed, would be added as a new Section 26 to Article IX of the Arizona Constitution. The purpose appears to be protecting individual privacy and preventing potential future taxation methods that could burden vehicle owners by charging them based on miles driven, which could be seen as an additional financial burden beyond existing vehicle-related taxes and fees.
