The increase was largely due to the collection of the state’s motor fuel excise tax, which was suspended by Executive Order for two and a half months during Fiscal Year 2024.

Individual income tax collections for the month totaled $1.13 billion.

That’s an increase of $131.3 million, or 13.2% compared to last year.
