Lawmakers in Oklahoma have a big problem, and they are trying to use your money to solve it.
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”15″][vc_column_text]Due to a budget shortfall, legislators are considering a $1.50 increase on the price for a pack of cigarettes. This tax increase would more than double the current state cigarette tax.
Make your voice heard. Legislators need to hear that you are opposed to this tax. Cigarettes are already unfairly taxed compared to other consumer goods. In Oklahoma, the tax on a pack of cigarettes is equal to the tax on 46 six-packs of beer, 72 bottles of wine and 61 gallons of gas.
Legislators need to stop trying to fill budget holes by unreasonably taxing hard-working adult consumers of a legal product.
Tell your legislators that they should vote “NO” on the proposed cigarette tax increase. Let them know that you make the informed decision to use a legal product and shouldn’t be penalized because of your choices.
Speak up now or pay for it later.
