Charles Rangel is chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, which is the committee that H.R. 4439: To amend the IRS code of 1986 to impose the same rate of tax on pipe tobacco as is imposed on roll-your-own tobacco has been referred to. The bill was introduced on January 13, 2010 and currently has one co-sponsor. With this sort of drama playing out on the committee, one can only hope that the bill will continue to sit in committee where it will die - at least for this legislative year. Dare we dream?
The latest count on the Stop the Pipe Tobacco Tax Petition.
Cheers!
