This bill changes how sales tax revenue from tires and motor vehicles is allocated in Tennessee. Instead of 100% going to the highway fund, 95.3970% of the revenue from new and used tires and new and used motor vehicles will go to the highway fund, with the remaining 4.6030% allocated to incorporated municipalities based on population. Certain tax revenues (from specific rate increases) will continue to be allocated as they currently are. The bill applies to revenue collected on or after October 1, 2026, and affects transportation funding and local municipality allocations.
