Cigarette tax hike eyed to fund Maryland relief plan
Maryland lawmakers, after months of talks, edge toward a 10 cent cigarette tax to raise 23.5 million yearly plus corporate tax revisions and inheritance tax changes. The package funds elderly homeowner credits, police aid to counties and cities, and Baltimore City relief, with Gov Mandel's approval and opposition from southern Maryland lawmakers. If approved before April 7, the plan moves ahead as part of a broad relief effort.
