The TCI Tax: Transportation And Climate Initiative Tax Will Cost You At The Pump
A New TCI GAS Tax is bad for: Families! Business! Our State!
WARNING: The prices for gasoline could soon rise dramatically for your family if the Raimondo administration undercuts the authority of the General Assembly, and moves forward with its plan to sign-on to a new stealth carbon-tax scheme – the TCI Tax… a move that would necessarily increase costs on families and business, and that also could lead to Constitutional legal challenges.
This tax – a green-new-deal type government mandate – is a regressive fuel tax that will disproportionately harm low-income families, who will struggle much more than the wealthy to pay the higher gasoline prices that will result at the pump.
