 Part I of HB 938 repeals TSPLOST effective immediately.  Part II of the bill provides for an entirely new TSPLOST, however, the new tax is contingent upon ratification of a constitutional amendment (HR 1350). If this bill passes but HR 1350 does not pass OR is not ratified, then there will be NO transportation tax. If this bill passes and HR 1350 passes and is ratified, then there will be a completely different transportation tax.
