Coalition pushes higher gas tax and fees in Illinois
A coalition of 22 groups led by Illinois Transportation Improvement seeks higher auto and truck license plate fees and an increased gasoline tax to fund a state highway and bridge program. The plan would raise license plates to 44 dollars a year for most vehicles and adjust recreational vehicle fees by weight, with gasoline tax up to 11 cents this year and 12 cents next year. Governor Thompson shows no immediate push for new highway financing this fall despite some support.
