On the day that is the deadline for filing federal and state income taxes, House Republicans in Annapolis hold a news conference today to talk about the possibility of a special legislative session, and Governor Martin O'Malley tries to broker a deal on a tax bill that will be the focus of the session.
Legislative leaders want the governor to call a special session, so that lawmakers can approve a tax bill and avoid $512-million in spending cuts from taking effect July 1.
The Washington Post reports the governor will meet today with Senate President Mike Miller, after meeting with House Speaker Mike Busch over the weekend.

If there were an increase of 1% is sales taxes, everybody in the State would be hit with a 1% increase in tax. If there is a 6% sales tax increase on gas, those areas without alternative transportation will pay 6% more in taxes. Who is that? The Eastern Shore. What's new?
