Gas tax hike urged to avert highway budget cuts
California officials warned that without a seven cent per gallon gas tax increase, highway funds could be cut by as much as 250 million dollars annually, forcing layoffs among state and construction workers. Pennsylvania revenue secretary Robert P. Kane projected a 40 million dollar tax loss this year and 100 million next year due to slower gas sales. States paused new bids while officials study which projects to delay or defer, delaying several planned constructions.
