Members of Maryland Health Care for All and the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids held a news conference in Annapolis today asking incumbent lawmakers and challengers running for the Maryland General Assembly to sign a pledge, promising they'll vote for a $1 increase in the state's cigarette tax if elected.
The tax was last increased in the special legislative session of 2007. It currently stands at $2-per pack of cigarettes.

Shooting themselves in the foot again..increase cig taxes does not raise more revenue...they will get less then projected once again

WOW DUDE, CANNOT WAIT TILL POT IS LEGAL DUDE...Smoke my Bowl, collect my Welfare Check and Vote Democrat...
People who are going to smoke will smoke no matter what the price is. some people I know have switched to those small cigars which aparently are not effected by the cigarette tax.They'll kill you quicker but there's no convincing them of that,they inhale just the same. It's a shame.
8:55 - A variation on the laws of stupidity...let them kill themselves...we want smarter people voting anyway....
How can you legalize pot & not smoking, otherwise? Doesn't make sense. IDIOTS!
