Bill Summary

An act to add Chapter 1.2 (commencing with Section 7283.61) to Part 1.7 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, relating to taxation.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits any city, county, or political subdivision (a smaller governmental unit) from imposing, administering, collecting, or enforcing a "vehicle miles traveled tax" or "mileage-based tax," which is defined as any tax, fee, assessment, or charge calculated based on the number of miles a motor vehicle travels, regardless of how it's tracked (like odometer readings or GPS data) or its purpose (like replacing fuel taxes). However, the bill does allow for the continued collection of tolls for using specific facilities, as long as those tolls aren't based on total miles traveled beyond the tolled area. The bill also declares that any existing programs or regulations that conflict with this prohibition are void and unenforceable, and it clarifies that this statewide prohibition applies to all cities, including charter cities, because it addresses a matter of statewide concern.
