As it stands, gasoline in the District costs about 10 cents more than the national average. Gas in Maryland and Virginia, meanwhile, costs about 15 and 26 cents less than the national average, respectively.
But AAA Mid-Atlantic spokesman John Townsend says that is all going to change soon.
In May, Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley signed the state’s first gas excise tax increase in 20 years into law. The legislation levies a sales tax on gasoline on top of the state’s 23.5-cents per gallon tax. It will take effect July 1, and add about 4 cents to a gallon of gas. The price will jump another 8 cents by July 2015. The tax could rise another 8 cents by July 2016. More
I live in Delmar Md. and already shop on the Delaware side of town because of O'Malley and all of the liberal Maryland Democrats. Maybe someone would like to make note of all the new businesses that have opened up on the Md. side of Delmar in the last 5 years. NONE. Now, look at the Delaware side. DUH!
Way to go O’Malley
