Today: State house votes on new revenue stream
The Pennsylvania House of Representative is scheduled to vote today on House Bill 2435, which would tax tobacco products and natural gas drilling to head off budget cuts and use the money for education and other critical public services. State Representative Dwight Evans sponsored the bill, which will also close corporate tax loopholes and a sales tax giveaway.
