Prop. 141
Summary
Amends the Arizona Constitution to bar the state, counties, cities, towns and other political subdivisions from imposing any tax or fee based on how many miles a person drives. It also bars them from monitoring or limiting a person's vehicle miles without that person's voluntary consent. Interstate commercial vehicles that report under interstate fuel-tax or registration agreements are exempt, as are vehicles owned and operated by government. The state currently does not have a law taxing mileage.
