Gasoline Excise
Tax--Historical Revenues:
Fact Sheet (See Endnote 1.)
Louis Alan Talley

97-456 E
The federal government has levied a tax on gasoline since
1932. For many years, the proceeds of the tax went into the
general fund of the Treasury. Although at the time of enactment
there was no earmarking of any kind, federal highway aid was
continuously granted to the states. It was not until 1956, as
part of a program for a 40,000-mile national system of interstate
highways, that the federal gasoline tax was increased and the
proceeds paid into a trust fund set up to finance the federal
governmentþs share (90%) of the cost of the interstate highway
system. With the passage of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1990, the gasoline tax returned (at least in part) to the role
it served before 1957: a general fund revenue source. Included in
the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (P.L. 105-34) are provisions that
return the general fund portion of the tax back to the Highway
Trust Fund and reauthorizes the tax collected for the Leaking
Underground Storage Tank trust fund beginning October 1, 1997.
Thus, with the beginning of fiscal year 1998, the disposition
of revenues collected from the 18.4 cents federal excise tax on
gasoline will change. Under the law, 15.45 cents goes to the
Highway Account, 2.85 cents to the Mass Transit Account, and .1
cent to the LUST trust fund. While the former deficit reduction
component of the federal gasoline tax has no expiration date, 14
cents of the tax expires September 30, 1999. It may be that this
tax will see reauthorization when Congress considers extension of
the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act, which
expires September 30. In the Analytical Perspectives volume of
the Budget of the United States Government for fiscal years 1996,
1997, and 1998, the amounts of revenues from transportation fuels
are reported. In FY1994, all transportation fuel taxes
contributed $9.402 billion to the general fund with contributions
falling to $8.491 billion in FY1995. The contribution further
fell to $7.468 billion in FY1996 and is projected to raise $7.669
in FY1997.The table that appears on the following page presents
collections from the federal excise tax on gasoline (and not all
transportation fuels).
TABLE 1. Gasoline Excise Tax
Collections

been derived from appropriate Annual Reports of the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue published by the Department of the Treasury,

to 1993, collection figures have been derived from appropriate
information release entitled Internal Revenue Report of Excise
Taxes. For fiscal years 1994 and 1995, collection figures have
been taken from the Internal Revenue Service Statistics of Income
Bulletin, v. 16, no. 2, Fall 1996. p. 167.
