PA House set to vote on $.05/ml e-liquid tax bill today

[Verb]

Presumably it is coming up for a vote because the sponsors believe it has a good chance of passing. Arguments were used to get support of the 40% tax. I wonder what the real reason is for repealing it in favor of the 5% tax. There must be some discussion points circulating among the legislators.

The cost of managing the 40% tax is high. As written, it would include many things that DoV wanted to tax if sold by a vape shop, but leave tax free if sold elsewhere. That action is illegal in PA. PA recently legalized vapable (and oral) plant medicine. The 40% vapor product tax was gumming up the wheels of that machine.

Happy about this possibility, but frustrated/angry this morning about the shops that closed this year because of all this.

I was listening but not well enough to hear while the clerk blew through a bunch of numbers. Did she say HB 2342 was tabled?
They're supposed to be back at it at 7:30 but out of the corner of my ear I thought I heard a 2342 and didn't know if that was in regard to an impending vote or a forget about it.
