(Portland, OR) -- Democrats in the Oregon Legislature are proposing tax increases and new taxes to raise nearly two-billion-dollars for transportation. The gas tax would increase 20-cents over six years. A new one percent tax would apply to all vehicle sales. Electric vehicles and hybrids would pay a road usage charge. The cost of a vehicle registration would increase 66 dollars, and the title fee would increase 90 dollars. The weight-mile tax on heavy vehicles would increase nearly 17 percent. Republicans say it's a non-starter. More negotiations will happen before the proposal is submitted to the Legislature.
