According to the Idaho Statesman, Representative Rich Jarvis was one of 27 legislators (and one of only 9 of the Southwest Idaho legislators) voting to raise the fuel tax by 7 cents per gallon.
The measure lost, 43-27.
Most legislators said they voted against the tax increase because they thought it was a bad time to raise taxes and that they were following their constituents' wishes.
Jarvis did not say why he voted for the bill.
