PHOENIX — Gov. Katie Hobbs wants state lawmakers to enact new laws to ensure the drivers of electric vehicles pay their fair share of road construction and maintenance.
But the governor said she doesn’t have anything specific in mind, at least not yet.
The willingness of Hobbs to take on the issue could provide some impetus for efforts that go back nearly a decade to equalize the levies paid by motorists whose fuel comes from a charger with those who pay the state every time they fill up with the 18-cent-a-gallon tax on gasoline.
