senate 01/21/2025 - 119th Congress
We're proposing the "Fueling Alternative Transportation with a Carbon Aviation Tax Act of 2025" to increase excise taxes on private jet fuel, aiming to reduce environmental impact and support clean transportation initiatives. Revenue from this tax will be directed toward improving air quality monitoring and enhancing public transit, especially in disadvantaged communities most affected by pollution.
