23 million Californians to get gas relief payments after budget deal struck, state leaders say
SF Gate ^ | June 26, 2022 | By Greta Serrin

Millions of California taxpayers will get “inflation relief” payments after lawmakers have reached an agreement on the framework of the 2022-23 budget. The deal also suspends the state's sales tax on diesel.

The framework includes giving 23 million Californians direct payments of up to $1,050. The payments would be issued via direct deposit refunds or debit cards to tax filers by late October.

Single filers who make less than $75,000 would get $350. Joint filers with an income under $150,000 would receive $700. If they have at least one dependent, they will receive an additional $350.

So for example, that means a married couple earning $100,000 per year with one child would get $1,050.

About 82% of the state's beneficiaries are in this income level.

Single filers who make $75,001 to $125,000 would get $250. Joint filers with an income between $150,001 and $250,000 would receive $500. If they have at least one dependent, they will receive an additional $250.

Here's what else is in the deal: Beginning on Oct. 1, the state will suspect the diesel sales tax, which is now 23 cents per gallon, for 12 months.

If you ride the bus you are paying a fare that includes the cost of fuel.

Well, I guess it's better than a sharp stick in the eye, but with diesel at almost $7/gallon in Kalifornia, it's not much help.

Yup. Another gimmick. The unwashed love the shiny object while being subjected to a thousand cuts.

The democrats sure made it complicated. All that was needed to be done was lower the gas taxes and everyone with a car or truck would have benefited. Most of the money will never reach anyone but insiders taking their cut.

It really is a bribe.

If Californians wanted real relief, they will have to vote for “drill baby drill” candidates from now on,🛢️🛢️🛢️.
