“Electric cars will be driving on the highways right along with all the other cars. One of our biggest issues is preservation and maintenance of our existing highways. We believe they should be paying their fair share,” Haugen, the lead sponsor, said Monday.

Road/mile taxes have been proposed in several states. They are already in use in Oregon and I think, a few other states to tax trucks. The technology is available to track every vehicle on every road. I suspect this will be the proposal to tax electric and hybrid vehicles for tax purposes. Of course they will also include internal combustion engine powered vehicles too in order to extract even more tax money from people.
