SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Leaders of a campaign to repeal California’s recent gas tax increase asked the federal government this week to investigate their claims that public resources have been used against them. “The No on Prop 6 campaign follows all campaign laws,” Robin Swanson said in a statement. Proposition 6 would repeal the tax and fee increases and also require voter approval for any future increases in gas taxes or vehicle fees. Proposition 6 proponents say the email indicates the transit agency was interested in influencing the campaign. It’s not clear what efforts the agency did to promote the gas tax.
