A bill for an act relating to fuel taxation by extending tax credits for E-15 gasoline, and modifying the sales tax refund for biodiesel production.

House File 1053 modifies fuel taxation policies, primarily affecting retail dealers of E-15 gasoline and producers of biodiesel. The bill extends the E-15 gasoline tax credit, delaying its repeal from January 2026 to January 2029. However, for calendar year 2028, the E-15 credit will be reduced from nine cents to four and a half cents per gallon and will no longer be refundable. Additionally, the bill increases the sales tax refund available to biodiesel producers from four cents to four and a half cents per gallon produced.
