The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5029, aims to eliminate the highway use tax by amending section 12-493a of the general statutes. The bill introduces new legal language that specifically removes the provisions related to the highway use tax, thereby ceasing its application.

The primary purpose of this legislation is to abolish the highway use tax, which is intended to relieve financial burdens on users of the highway system. By eliminating this tax, the bill seeks to simplify the tax structure and potentially reduce costs for transportation-related activities.
