The Oregon Legislature passed House Bill 3991 in September 2025 to provide transportation funding for ODOT, cities, counties and transit districts around the state. Transportation funding maintains the quality, safety, and reliability of Oregon's roads, bridges and other parts of our transportation system.

On December 12, 2025, petitioners submitted signatures to the Oregon Secretary of State to refer the bill to the voters. The Secretary of State Elections Division is in the process of verifying those signatures. While signatures are being validated, the Oregon Fuels Tax Group (FTG) is pausing implementation of the rate increase and licensees should continue to remit tax at the rate of $0.40 per gallon.

If the bill is successfully referred to the ballot, the rate increase pause will remain in effect pending the result of the vote. FTG will continue to provide updates to licensees throughout this process on our website.
