I had never heard of this, but it makes sense. Gasoline pumps measure out by the gallon without accounting for the expansion of the liquid due to heat. It's costing Arizona citizens (who apparently have the hottest gas) up to 115 million dollars anually. Here in Texas our gas is not so hot year round, but right now it's got to be very hot, and therefore more expensive.
Please write your congressmembers and urge them to enact legislation to end the "heat tax."
