摘要

汽油税是州交通资金最重要的收入来源之一。本研究借鉴了政策创新和扩散理论，并考察了2010年至2018年50个州直接提高州汽油税税率的立法决定的驱动因素。使用离散事件历史分析，本研究发现各州提高汽油税税率是为了应对维持和改善州高速公路基础设施质量和性能的日益增长的资金需求。此外，这些发现表明，国家的内部特征-贫困率，个人收入，不断上涨的天然气价格，以及邻国的外部影响影响汽油税上调的采用。

What Drives States to Raise Gas Tax Rates? An Empirical Analysis

Gas taxes represent one of the most important revenue sources for state transportation funding. This study draws upon the theory of policy innovation and diffusion and examines the drivers of legislative decisions to directly increase state gas tax rates among 50 states from 2010 to 2018. Using a discrete event history analysis, this study finds that states raise gas tax rates in response to the growing funding needs of maintaining and improving the quality and performance of state highway infrastructure. Additionally, these findings suggest that state internal characteristics— poverty rate, personal income, rising gas prices, as well as the external influences of neighboring states affect the adoption of a gas tax rate hike.
