Gas Tax Hike Approved by MO Legislature Sent to Governor Parson

Thursday, May 13, 2021 at 6:41 AM

A bill which could up the gas tax in Missouri has been moved to Governor Mike Parson’s desk; this comes after deliberation and a vote by the state’s House.

According to an Ozarks First report, the House voted in favor of raising “the tax by 2.5 cents per gallon annually over five years, starting later this year.” Currently, Missouri’s gas tax places at the third lowest in the United States. It is at 17-cents.

More details on this story are available online on the Ozarks First Website.
