Empty gesture attack on sales tax reform in Maryland
Perek, Sev. 7, 1047 section Red reports the floor fight over Lane's 14 cent sales tax exemption proposal. Critics call it an empty gesture since it halves only food for off premise consumption while raising taxes on lunches at work or school. The bill could cut annual sales tax revenue by about 1.5 million dollars. Prince George's and Montgomery counties oppose repeal efforts but Rep. Lane vows to press for repeal in 1949. Only two votes against the 14 cent bill.
