An effort by California Republicans to suspend the state's gas tax - the highest in the nation - failed Monday.
Assemblyman Kevin Kiley, R-Rocklin, introduced Assembly Bill 1638 that would have paused California's gas tax for half a year, but a party line vote in Sacramento shot it down.
The plan would have temporarily removed the 51 cent tax on every gallon of gas sold in California, which Kiley said brings in about $4 billion of funds that the state uses for transportation maintenance and construction. The average gas tank holds 14 gallons and so pausing the tax would save the average driver $7.14 with every fill-up.
