In 2017, legislators and Gov. Jerry Brown increased gas taxes by about 18 cents a gallon and car registration fees by $25 to $175 annually. Those levies would continue to rise with inflation. The new annual revenues of $5.1 billion are for transportation funding. Proposition 6 would repeal those increases and require voter approval for future fuel and vehicle fee hikes.
Yes on Prop. 6: Backers say the increases were unfair and too costly.
No on Prop. 6: Opponents say we need the money for roads and transit.
