McCarthy Confident on California Gas Tax Repeal
Like many Republicans in California, the House Majority Leader, Kevin McCarthy, believes that the gas tax imposed last year by Democrats will be repealed:
“Affordability is the most significant issue facing California, yet Democrats in Sacramento continue to pile on harmful regulations, taxes, and red tape. Companies like Toyota and Carl’s Jr. already have fled the state due to the overwhelming tax burden, and record numbers of Californians are moving to low-tax states like Texas, Arizona, and Nevada.”
The repeal of the 12- cent per gallon tax hike qualified for the ballot back in April. The measure comes on the heels of Californians seeing gas prices well above the national average.
