Democratic Senator Wants New Taxes On Private Jet Travel-World-Wire
Senator Ed Markey on Wednesday said he is proposing additional taxes on private jet trips to address the climate impacts of wealthy travel.
Markey, a Democrat on the Senate Commerce Committee that oversees aviation, said the bill would require wealthy travelers “to pay their fair share for the environmental and infrastructure costs of their use of private jets.”
The bill would increase the surcharge for non-commercial aviation, with the proceeds going to an environmental trust fund.
