SOUTH DAKOTA HOUSE SPEAKER JON HANSEN IS CALLING ON STATE LEGISLATORS TO SUSPEND SOUTH DAKOTA’S GAS TAX.
THE SPEAKER IS CALLING FOR A SPECIAL SESSION TO IMPLEMENT THE CHANGE.
THE AVERAGE PRICE OF A GALLON OF REGULAR IN SOUTH DAKOTA HAS RECENTLY BEEN ABOUT FOUR-DOLLARS-20-CENTS A GALLON ACCORDING TO TRIPLE-A.
THE STATE GAS TAX ADDS 28 CENTS A GALLON.
IF THE STATE AND FEDERAL GAS TAXES ARE BOTH SUSPENDED, SOUTH DAKOTANS WOULD SAVE NEARLY 50 CENTS PER GALLON.
