HJR 175 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Proposes a constitutional amendment modifying provisions relating to revenue derived from highway users that is deposited into the state road fund

HJR 175 proposes a constitutional amendment to redirect Missouri’s fuel tax revenue toward road funding. It mandates that 10% of net fuel tax proceeds go to a County Aid Road Trust Fund (with specific allocations for cities outside counties), 15% to incorporated cities/towns for road maintenance, 1% to counties based on agricultural land, and the remainder to the state road fund. All distributed funds must be used exclusively for road construction, maintenance, repairs, and related purposes - prohibiting use for equipment, salaries, or non-road projects. The amendment also prevents local governments from imposing new fuel-related taxes without voter approval and clarifies these funds won’t count toward state revenue calculations.
