Its this type of attitude the Maryland Law Makers have that makes me glad I left that communist state and moved to West Virginia. Remember the Maryland Creed : If you can think it , We can tax it!
Maryland Law Makers are just making themselves look bad across the country by doing this to their citizens and to those voters who are good enough to put them in office.

Not sure yet. Gary Glass of the AHA has been in contact with one of the Representatives. Apparently there's a disconnect between the intent and the wording.
More to come...
