Comments
The Virginia Interfaith Center is monitoring this bill.
this tax will affect those who can least afford it. Why do you think people are buying fuel efficient cars? DUH!! Besides, the tax on gas is a highway tax, so just don't work on the roads! Or have we been dipping into the gas tax? EH??
