Sen. John Miller didn’t get the memo.
Even though his district was won by Governor Bob McDonnell with 64% of the vote, Democrat Miller thinks right now is a dandy time for a giant tax increase!
SB 684 would add a 5% tax to gasoline while lowering the current 17.5 cents per gallon gas tax to five cents temporarily, then hike it back up to 15 cents. It would also hike the car sales tax
Funny, I don’t remember John Miller telling the voters he’d be raising taxes once he was in office.
Creigh Deeds and his never-ending tax tables would’ve had room for Miller’s gas tax. Perhaps Miller is aiming to match the 36% Deeds got in Miller’s district.
