two tobacco tax increases and I intend to vote against them this is the larger
Official Ballot TitleConstitutional Amendment 3
[Proposed by Initiative Petition]
Official Ballot Title:
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to:
- increase taxes on cigarettes each year through 2020, at which point this additional tax will total 60 cents per pack of 20;
- create a fee paid by cigarette wholesalers of 67 cents per pack of 20 on certain cigarettes, which fee shall increase annually; and
- deposit funds generated by these taxes and fees into a newly established Early Childhood Health and Education Trust Fund?
When cigarette tax increases are fully implemented, estimated additional revenue to state government is $263 million to $374 million annually, with limited estimated implementation costs. The revenue will fund only programs and services allowed by the proposal. The fiscal impact to local governmental entities is unknown.Fair Ballot Language:A “yes” vote will amend the Missouri Constitution to increase taxes on cigarettes each year through 2020, at which point this additional tax will total 60 cents per pack of 20. This amendment also creates a fee paid by cigarette wholesalers of 67 cents per pack of 20 on certain cigarettes. This amendment further provides that the funds generated by these taxes and fees shall be deposited into a newly established Early Childhood Health and Education Trust Fund.A “no” vote will not amend the Missouri Constitution relating to taxes and fees on cigarettes.If passed, this measure will increase taxes on cigarettes.

pipelines, a comment
It is well known that I and many members of soar 11-3 have opposed and condemned pipeline construction, upkeep, planning, politics and more of pipeline construction. The Dakota pipeline is nothing novel or new.
In our estimation, it is being built on land stolen from indians and farmers, it could well become an enviromental disaster and the benefits will not trickle down to workers, farmers and everyone else.
watching vids of how the construction company treated protesters looks like some of the antilabor films from the 1930s. dogs and teargas for unarmed women and children, how brave.
this, I speak for myself at this point and time.
