Hogan for Maryland today released the following statement from Governor Larry Hogan in response to the House of Delegates’ approval of the largest tax increase in Maryland history:
“It’s deja vu all over again—the same crushing tax hikes that convinced me to run for Governor in the first place are rearing their ugly head again. The House has approved the single largest tax increase in Maryland history—a proposed $1.3 billion in new taxes on the backs of working families already struggling with historic inflation and a cost of living crisis.
“Marylanders know it doesn’t have to be this way. As Governor, I cut taxes for eight straight years by $4.7 billion and left Maryland with a record surplus. It breaks my heart to see that progress slip away.
“I urge Democratic leaders in the Senate to work with Republicans to stop this crushing tax hike and protect hard-working taxpayers.”
