OOIDA to sue New York's State Department of Taxation and Finance

The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association has decided to sue New York State Department of Taxation and Finance. The lawsuit will be challenging the constitutionality of highway taxes imposed on trucks for use of the state highways.
The lawsuit will ask the courts to declare these taxes on out-of-state truckers unconstitutional as well as ask for refunds and attorney fees to the out-of-state truckers that have been affected by this tax. Currently the truckers are required to pay $15 for registration and $4 for the decals to operate on the state highways.
