Gasoline and motor fuel taxes, to suspend the state excise taxes on gasoline and motor fuels from April 15, 2026 to June 15, 2026.
This bill proposes to temporarily suspend Alabama's state excise taxes on gasoline and motor fuels for a two-month period from April 15, 2026 to June 15, 2026. The measure would apply to all drivers and vehicle owners who purchase fuel during this timeframe, effectively removing the $0.30 per gallon tax on gasoline and the $0.31 per gallon tax on motor fuels. The Department of Revenue would be authorized to create rules necessary to implement this temporary tax suspension. The legislation would take effect immediately upon passage, allowing the tax suspension to begin on the specified start date.
