Legislation to convert the Oregon's current voluntary vehicle miles traveled (VMT) tax program to a mandatory program was introduced.

Legislation to convert the state’s current voluntary vehicle miles traveled (VMT) tax program to a mandatory program was introduced. The mandatory program would apply to all high-mileage vehicles that have a rating of 55 mpg or better. These high-mileage vehicles would not pay the gas tax that would apply to all other vehicles.

Under the bill, if a vehicle is subject to the mandatory VMT, owners would choose to pay a flat annual fee in lieu of a fee based on actual miles driven.
