NEW YORK – CALL TO ACTION
VAPOR TAXES
In order for New York’s FY 2019 state budget to be passed on time, lawmakers in Albany need to finalize details this week. The budget is due on April 1st.
Included in this year’s budget is a proposal that would enact a new tax on vapor products. This tax rate could be anywhere from 10% to 40% of wholesale. Either proposal is unacceptable. Taxes which are intended to discourage use are inappropriate when applied to products that are saving people’s lives.
Please take action TODAY by sending a message to your New York lawmakers urging them to keep vapor taxes out of the budget!
