What this bill would do
This bill proposes amendments to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. It aims to provide refunds for certain types of dyed fuels.

To receive a refund, a person must prove to the Secretary that they removed the fuel from a terminal. These changes would also involve updating various existing sections of the tax code to include this new provision.
