Maryland Senate Calls for Amendment Barring Court Tax Increases
The Maryland Senate narrowly passed a resolution urging an amendment to the U S Constitution to stop courts from ordering tax hikes. Proponents led by Sons Alex X Mooney and Walter Baker argued it upholds separation of powers, citing cases where courts ordered tax increases. Twenty four senators supported the measure, with Senate President Thomas V Mike Miller among later voters. Other states are weighing similar resolutions as federal rulings on taxes face ongoing challenges.

Republicans hail President Bush for vetoing a proposed $2.2 billion Wilson Bridge replacement labor agreement that would require contractors to follow union rules. They say the PLA could add $150 million to costs and risk delays on I-95 crossriver work, while Gov. Glendening sought timely completion.
