Louisiana health bill would tax kerosene for TB care
A Louisiana House proposal by Rep. Prophit would levy one cent per gallon on kerosene sold in the state. Revenues would fund regional sanatoria for tuberculosis and indemnity for tubercular cattle slaughter, with salaries for health officers and hospital costs covered. The bill details dealer definitions, indemnities not to exceed 50 or 10,000 yearly, and potential 40 bed sanatoria with emergency care.
