An act relating to mileage reimbursement rates for plug-in electric vehicles

This bill requires the Agency of Administration to establish separate mileage reimbursement rates for plug-in electric vehicles, including plug-in hybrids and battery electric vehicles, for state employees, General Assembly members, and members of boards and commissions. Under the new policy, these individuals can choose to be reimbursed at the rate applicable to their specific type of electric vehicle or at the standard rate used for non-plug-in vehicles. The legislation also mandates that mileage rates for electric vehicles be included in collective bargaining agreements for state employees covered by such agreements. The policy updates will take effect on July 1, 2024, for most provisions, with some sections becoming effective upon passage.
