An Act amending Title 3 (Agriculture) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in weights and measures, providing for fuel and diesel fuel tax transparency.
This bill requires gas stations in Pennsylvania to display a clear label on their fuel pumps showing the specific amounts of federal and state taxes included in the price of gasoline and diesel. The law mandates that the Department of Agriculture design and maintain these labels, which must list the individual tax rates and their combined totals, while ensuring the state covers the cost of producing and replacing the stickers. Retailers are exempt from the responsibility of affixing or maintaining these labels, and the state must update the displayed tax rates within 60 days of any changes.
