Bill > HR6673

This bill amends Title 49 of the United States Code to clarify how local general sales taxes can be used by airports. Specifically, it adds a provision to Section 47133(b) that allows local governments to use revenues from generally applicable sales taxes, even if those taxes were not previously excluding aviation fuel, provided that the local government is not itself sponsoring a public airport and a large hub airport (defined as having over 35 million passenger boardings in 2021) is located within its jurisdiction. This change is intended to provide clarity on the use of these tax revenues, which are collected by local governments and can be a significant source of funding.
