The price Californians pay at the pump will rise again as the increase in the state’s gas tax goes into effect.

It comes as lawmakers approve a budget that includes rebates going back to California families. The state already has one of the highest gas taxes of 51 cents a gallon. Gas prices and inflation are taking their toll on Californians.

While the national average for gas is less than $5 a gallon. In California, it’s $6.28 per gallon and about to go even higher.
