The transportation network company (TNC) regulation bill (HB 2076) was amended before final passage on
March 7. The amendment ensures that the preemption of cities did not apply to generally applicable business and sales taxes.
The main purpose of the bill provides uniform statewide regulation of TNCs (also known as rideshares) and TNC drivers, but it was amended to preempt cities from imposing any new tax, fee, or change in rate on TNCs.
We believe these amendments address the most significant city concerns with the preemption of taxes and fees on TNCs in the bill.
