Sanford Discusses Higher Cigarette Tax Plan
Governor Mark Sanford visited Greg's Gas Plus in NORTH AUGUSTA with economist Russell Sobel to discuss a possible cigarette tax increase. Sanford signaled a veto of a roughly $1.3 billion tax hike over 10 years while noting overall tax policy favors tax shifts rather than net burden increases.
