Bill Summary

Suspend Chapter 28, Title 12 Of The S.c. Code, Relating To Motor Fuels Subject To User Fees And The Imposition Of Those Fees, For Thirty Days With An Automatic Extension For Another Thirty Days If The Average Price Of Gasoline Has Not Fallen By Fifteen Percent At The End Of The Initial Thirty Day Period.

AI Summary

This joint resolution temporarily suspends the collection of user fees on motor fuels in South Carolina for an initial period of thirty days, meaning that for this month, drivers will not have to pay these specific taxes on gasoline. This suspension is part of an effort to provide relief, likely due to high fuel prices. The resolution also includes an automatic extension for another thirty days if the average price of gasoline in the state has not decreased by fifteen percent from a starting price, which will be determined by the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office, a state agency responsible for economic and fiscal analysis, and published on their website.
