Georgia's gas tax is four cents lower in 2009...but all 50 states could soon see an increase in the federal gas tax.
Legislators are looking into the possibility - because people are driving less.
The tax revenue is coming is down because less gas is being bought.
A committee that oversees transportation financing says it plans to release a report that asks congress to raise the gas tax by 10 cents a gallon... and diesel tax by 12 to 15 cents.
Current rates are 18.4 cents per gallon for gas, and 24.4 cents a gallon for diesel.
