HB 1730 Washington House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Directing the deposit of the proceeds from taxes on aircraft fuel to the aeronautics account.

HB 1730 directs all tax revenue generated from aircraft fuel (as defined in state law) to be deposited into the state's aeronautics account, rather than other designated funds. This bill specifically amends existing tax code sections to mandate this funding stream for aviation-related programs and infrastructure. The change affects how Washington State allocates existing tax proceeds from aircraft fuel sales, ensuring these funds exclusively support aeronautics activities. It does not alter the tax rate or impose new taxes on aircraft fuel. The bill focuses solely on redirecting existing revenue to the aeronautics account, as specified in RCW 82.42.090.
