An Act amending Titles 53 (Municipalities Generally), 66 (Public Utilities) and 74 (Transportation) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in transportation network companies, providing for excise fee; in transportation network service, providing for excise fee; and, in sustainable mobility options, further providing for fund.

SB 795 imposes a new fee on transportation network companies (like Uber or Lyft) operating in Pennsylvania. Companies must pay 4.6% of total ride fares in Philadelphia (a city of the first class) and 6% elsewhere, remitted quarterly to the Public Transportation Trust Fund. These fees will directly fund transportation programs, including operating costs for public transit systems, as specified in the bill’s fund allocation provisions. The law takes effect immediately upon enactment.
