Leave it to Leopold
John Leopold has to be the only Republican mad that the General Assembly passed a tax of his:
Leopold was upset, though, that the General Assembly stole an idea he has pushed as a local revenue source - a higher rental car tax.Aw....let's throw a pity party for Tax Hike John.
"I proposed a car-rental tax on out-of-state residents," that could have raised $5 million a year for the county, he said, but the Arundel delegation of state legislators rejected the idea.
Instead, the state will now impose a tax on all renters, including Maryland residents, and keep the proceeds to help pay for a new Chesapeake Bay restoration fund.

John Leopold highlights the flawed theory why you don't throw out conservative democrats for republicans because you think they'll be another vote for the filibuster. Leopold's legislative record suggests he'd be on the forefront arguing in favor of the tax increases.
