AI Summary

This Resolution, titled "NO PER MILE DRIVING TAX," expresses the Illinois House of Representatives' strong opposition to any state or local taxes that charge drivers based on the number of miles they travel on public, non-tolled roads. The resolution highlights concerns that such taxes, sometimes referred to as Road-Use Charges (RUCs), Mileage-Based User Fees (MBUFs), or Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) fees, could create financial burdens, raise privacy issues due to potential GPS tracking, and disproportionately affect rural residents who often drive longer distances. It specifically mentions proposed plans involving GPS tracking via smartphone apps or devices similar to toll transponders, as well as methods relying on odometer readings or a flat annual fee, all of which are opposed by the resolution.
