Gas tax a done deal: How every member of the Assembly voted

TRENTON — The New Jersey Assembly has voted 45-27 to approve a 23-cent-per-gallon hike in the state gas tax — making the controversial measure a done deal.

The gas tax increase — along with other tax breaks — was brokered by Gov. Chris Christie and legislative leaders last week and approved by the state earlier Friday. Senate Christie is expected to sign the measure.

The gas tax would probably increase Nov. 1, though that could be later if Christie waits more than a week to sign the bill. New Jersey last increased the gas tax in 1988. The state will go from having the nation’s second lowest gas tax, 14.5 cents, to its seventh highest, 37.5 cents.

There are tradeoffs in the measure. The sales tax would be reduced by three-eighths of a percent by 2018. Income taxes would be reduced for most retirees, the working poor and veterans.

Even with the gas tax, the state plans on incurring another $12 billion in debt to pay for transportation costs over the course of a decade. The 23-cent-per-gallon hike in the gas tax would yield $1.2 billion a year, but just $500 million is being used for “pay as you go” funding. The rest of $2 billion a year in spending would be supported by $1.5 billion a year in borrowing for eight years to be repaid through gas taxes.

Eight Assembly members did not vote.
