A 5-cent increase in the gas tax and higher corporate taxes will be the centerpiece of a major revenue bill that House Democratic leaders will ask legislators to vote on next week as part of a package that could raise over $600 million in new funding for transportation.
The long-awaited revenue proposal would also hike fees on ride-hailing trips taken through services like Uber and Lyft and eliminate what Majority Leader Ron Mariano called a "glaring kiss" to the rental car industry by getting rid of their exemption — worth $110 million — from sales taxes on the purchase of new vehicles.

Poll: Two-thirds of voters say billionaires should pay a wealth tax | TheHill
Around two-thirds of Americans say they support a "wealth tax" on billionaires in an effort to close the wealth gap in the country, according to a new Hill-HarrisX poll.
The survey found majority support for such a tax among Democrats and independents, at 85 percent and 66 percent, respectively. Republicans were more divided, with 53 percent saying the ultra-rich should not be subjected to an additional tax and 47 percent in favor.
The survey also found differences in opinion among those in different income groups, with voters who earn more than $75,000 a year less in favor of taxing billionaires (63 percent) compared to those earning less than that amount (70 percent).
