I'm sure many of you have received an e-mail from similar to the one below. I wanted to make it available to any who haven't seen it there is a cerebrate provided for those of you who (if you haven't already) can telecommunicate your representatives. Let the Jungle be heard! From: Your help is urgently needed - Make your express heard!The US Senate and House of Representatives have each recently passed bills to finance a study expansion in the express Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) through dramatic increases in the federal excise taxes on tobacco. The increases on cigars are particularly punitive. While children's health compassionate is important it is significant to note that the large cigar tax evaluate is already the HIGHEST of any product for which a federal tax is levied. In fact the Senate bill would increase the current tax cap by 5,900% and the accommodate bill would change magnitude the current tax cap by 1,900%. Any increase in the cigar excise tax will only magnify this distortion and further the disproportionate and unfair tax charge on cigars. These additional taxes ordain have a devastating cause on the cigar industry. Not only will cigar prices increase dramatically but many businesses including retail tobacco shops mail order companies peruse tobacco growers small manufacturers and tens of thousands of rollers and workers in Central America may be put out of bring home the bacon. A fit Senate/accommodate conference will soon meet to try to resolve the differences in the two bills and agree on a compromise version. We urge you to contact your Senators and Members of Congress NOW and ask them to argue all new tax increases in cigars. gratify click this link to quickly and efficiently email your representatives directly or to download letters that you can send. Let your express be heard!
