Because the cost of living isn’t high enough in CA already.

I read that about half the money would go to local public transportation. So much for road repair. It’s all smoke and mirrors and pure bull$h!t.

Put 16 gallons in your tank, Jerry Brown reaches into your wallet and peels off 2 bucks for the starving CA public sector millionaire "working stiffs". 😀

Is this not an explicit, tacit admission democrats have permitted the road system in CA to get to the stage of “broken”?

I’m sorry, there i go with facts again. Liberal socialists hage facts.

Herr furor Brown, demands more tributes from the peasants. Anyone who does not agree will be arrested and put into his prison system.

In the 70's Calif. had remarkable state highways, compared to the New England, NY, Penn. roads that I was used to.

I chalked it up to very few freeze-thaw cycles per year and good engineering.

Libtards have apparently developed technology to screw roads up too.

Instead, stop throwing money at illegals and put you bullet train to nowhere on hiatus for a few years and you’ll be swimming in money.

Proper asset allocation is economics 101.

And how many bills and ballot measures have been passed to fund road improvements, only to have that money redirected to some other leftist pet project?

Jerry Brown, you are garbage.

The new Venezuela. And they thought Hillary would be there to bail them out at our expense. And they are stupid enough to continue when there is no Hillary. There is butt stupid, but this is much worse.

Why are they broken? Because the State hasn’t bothered to maintain them? Where did all the money go that was already set aside to pay them? Are you maybe wasting the money on something else, like a high-speed train to nowhere?

Gas is at a low price/gallon now. Democrats will take advantage when the sacrifice is low. They will have their pound of flesh when the price is high.

Hey, Moonbeam, without roads, no one can reach the stations for your little choo choo... Did you just remember that?

Billions and billions wasted, so now everyone gets to pony up more so they can waste even more billions.

“The roads are broken, and they’re getting worse, and they’re not going to get better unless you get a significant injection of money,"

What's being done with the other 58.83 cents per gallon CA is getting already?

Kalifornia does it again! Raising taxes is the solution to everything for them.

Just a silly question. What is the gas tax going to actually fund. Early the Gov wanted to use much of the revenues to fund public employee pension underfunding liabilities, then when that was dead on arrival, he suggested it would fund road repairs and maintenance.

Looks to me he just wants revenues to spend on anything he wants.

Another creepozoid democRAT Kalifornia governor, Gray Davis announced previously that all of the gasoline taxes collected specifically for road maintenance would no longer be used for roads. He went on and on about the evil automobile, that if we maintained and built good roadways, the idiotic Kalifornia resident would have the audacity to actually DRIVE on them! He stated all the gasoline tax revenue would be re-directed to more important things. While he was recalled, I sincerely doubt that anyone changed his idiotic $$$$ transfer of the gasoline taxes. And now, Moonbeam wants more $$$$. Creepozoids all.

Brown, perhaps if you spent the gas tax you all ready collected on roads instead of stealing it to buy votes from immigrants the roads would not be falling apart?

Tell me why this time over all the other times you have raised the taxes “for the roads”, you will actually spend it on road work?

Lying theif...
