State Press Releases

 

It looks like a group intent on raising cigarette taxes in Utah just hasn’t gotten the message.  These people still want to increase the current 69.5 cent per pack tax by $1.30 to a whopping $2.00 per pack.  This would give Utah the sixth largest cigarette tax in the nation, and the largest single cigarette tax increase in the nation.  A pack of cigarettes would cost over $5.00, with over 60% of that going to the government! 

Whether you smoke or not, this is highway robbery.

One of the biggest threats to the survival of American manufacturing isn't from overseas competition. It is from a wave of asbestos lawsuits here at home.

Today's asbestos cases are bankrupting companies, destroying jobs and leaving nothing for true victims.

Runaway asbestos litigation has already cost $54 billion and put 75 companies out of business.
