The bill H. 5398 is a joint resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly that aims to suspend a portion of the user fee imposed on gasoline and diesel fuel, as well as the corresponding road tax, for a period of sixty days. Specifically, it targets the user fee outlined in Section 12-28-310(D) and the road tax in Section 56-11-410. The suspension will take effect from the date of the resolution's approval by the Governor, and after the sixty-day period, the fees will be reinstated at the rates established by current law.

This resolution is currently residing in the House Committee on Ways and Means and was introduced on March 24, 2026. It is designed to provide temporary relief from fuel taxes, potentially benefiting consumers during a specified timeframe.
