Arkansas bottlers lose bid as tax bill passes committee
Revenue and Taxation Committee votes 10 to 4 to back a bill placing a 15 cent tax per case of bottled drinks and 60 cents per gallon of syrup. Gary Eubanks of Pulaski County authored the measure. Bottlers warn of profit erosion, while opponents say the tax will raise prices and hurt competition. A Blytheville bottler and a North Little Rock vending firm owner argue costs cannot be passed to customers.
