Taxing EV's is coming:

"Does president Biden's infrastructure Bill contain a pilot program to test mileage tax," asked a viewer named Doris.

The claim has been spreading on social media as well. To find out the truth, the Verify team looked to the bill itself, and got context from experts in the field.

Details of the proposed pilot program can be found on page 508 of the bill, in section 13002, titled "National Motor Vehicle Per-Mile User Fee Pilot."

This section of the bill mandates that the Secretary of Transportation, in coordination with the Secretary of the Treasury, and an advisory board, establishes a pilot program, to achieve the following objectives:

“To test the design, acceptance, implementation, and financial sustainability of a national motor vehicle per-mile user fee”

“To address the need for additional revenue for surface transportation infrastructure and a national motor vehicle user fee”

“Provide recommendations relating to the adoption and implementation of a national motor vehicle per-mile user fee.”
