I guess I am not clear on how this will all work out for them.

Designate an area that is more congested than you want.  Sure, fine.  Charge more on a car purchased by someone in that area.  Ok, I can see that.  What about cars purchased outside that area, but still primarily used there?  

And requiring companies to offer 'commute benefits'.  I will say I am not cool with a bunch of added taxes, specially ones that look problematical to enforce.  But requiring companies to do things i also disagree with.  If things like that become seen as employment benefits, companies will offer them to stay competitive.  

A lot of this is why we enacted TABOR, no new taxes without voter approval.  It can be a problem at times, but other times I whole heartedly like it.

As for the State monitoring miles driven in order to tax usage since they are loosing gas tax revenue, I will be against that always.
