Study resolution on EV taxation and fees

This Montana joint resolution directs the Legislative Council to form a committee that will study the state's current fees and taxes on electric vehicles. The study aims to evaluate whether these charges are fair compared to taxes on gas-powered vehicles and to examine how other states handle similar issues. The committee must include representatives from the Department of Transportation, an economist, vehicle owners, and a consumer advocate, and must submit its findings to the 2027 legislature by September 2026. The bill does not change any existing laws but instead initiates a review process to potentially develop new road funding policies in the future.
