“A controversial measure to charge $20 [an annual federal tax] on cars to help pay for Trump administration priorities is out of the House Transportation Committee’s reconciliation markup plan for today after several Republicans panned the annual registration [tax], a person with direct knowledge of the committee’s plans told POLITICO. … Chair Sam Graves (R-Mo.) plans to offer a manager’s amendment that will excise the universal registration [tax], the person, who was granted anonymity to discuss private plans, said. The change will also boost the annual electric vehicle registration [tax] to $250 from $200, pare back the air traffic controller system funding from $15 billion to $12.5 billion and reduce the top line number for Coast Guard funding from $23 billion to $21.2 billion.” (04/30/25)
