House Rejects Baltimore County Tax Relief Plan
In Annapolis the House of Delegates rejected a plan letting Baltimore County swap part of its property tax for higher income taxes.

The measure would have shown a broader income tax, with a floor debate on its impact and costs. The House voted 59 to 41 to uphold the Ways and Means Committee’s kill decision.
