Starting July 1, California will be paying about six more cents per gallon for gas.
That's when the state's new gas tax will hit consumers -- it's a jump from 2016 when the state tax was 28 cents per gallon.
According to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, the rates are in effect from July 1 to June 30, 2020:
The tax will increase from 41.7 cents to 47.3 cents per gallon.
In 2017, the state legislature passed a 10-year gas tax and fee increase, which hopes to ultimately raise $52 billion for transportation projects.
