A new proposal making its way through the US House of Representatives could revolutionize the way electric vehicle (EV) owners contribute to road maintenance. Under the proposed legislation, EV owners would be required to pay an annual fee of $130 to help fund road repairs and infrastructure projects. The move is aimed at addressing concerns that EV owners are currently exempt from paying the federal gas tax, which funds highway construction and maintenance. Critics argue that the fee is a necessary step to ensure that EV owners contribute their fair share to the upkeep of the nation's roads.
