Motor fuel user fee suspension
This bill proposes a temporary suspension of the user fee on gasoline and diesel fuel, as well as the road tax, for a period of ninety days. It directly affects drivers and vehicle owners in South Carolina who currently pay these charges on their fuel purchases. The key provision pauses these specific fees starting from the bill's effective date, with all charges automatically reinstated at their original rates after the ninety-day period ends. The measure would take effect only after receiving the Governor's approval.
