Franchot says the gas tax holiday will get signed within a few days

Maryland comptroller and current Democratic gubernatorial candidate Peter Franchot talked to C4 and Bryan Nehman about his gas tax holiday proposal that is planned to be signed within the next two days. “One of the offshoots of the unbelievable invasion of Ukraine is that gas prices are spiking,” Franchot said Franchot, who is also the chair of the revenue estimating committee, said his idea of a gas tax holiday came from wanting to help Marylanders amid the rising costs and cited the surplus as a way to help pay for the holiday.
