UPDATE ON REPEAL OF BELOW COST SALE OF GASOLINE

Here is an update on the status of HB 1601 - Repealing Provisions of law that prohibit a retail service station dealer from selling motor fuel below cost.

The House Bill was sponsored by Delegate Warren Miller of Howard County, to repeal the foolish Maryland Law that costs Marylanders undue pain and hardship at the pump.

Bottom line. . . it was given a death sentence by certain members of The House Economic Matters committee.

From my own personal observation. . . I wish the Maryland Legislature would never convene because every time they do they end-up doing more harm than good. This is yet another classic example where enactment of the law cost Marylanders dearly.
