SF 1747 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Motor fuels tax indexed increases repealer

SF 1747 repeals automatic annual increases to Minnesota's motor fuels excise taxes that would have adjusted based on construction costs. It freezes current tax rates for gasoline, E85, M85, and other fuels at their 2025 levels, eliminating the requirement to raise taxes by up to 3% each year. This directly affects all Minnesotans who purchase gasoline or alternative fuels, as their tax rates will no longer automatically increase. The bill also requires transferring funds from the General Fund to the Highway User Tax Distribution Fund to offset revenue losses from the tax freeze, effective July 1, 2025.
