The legislature will hold a public hearing today on a bill that would put a 2¢ per ounce tax on sugary drinks. House Bill 5537: AN ACT IMPOSING A TAX ON CERTAIN SWEETENED BEVERAGES, SYRUPS AND POWDERS AND DEDICATING THE REVENUE GENERATED TO A UNIVERSAL FREE SCHOOL MEALS PROGRAM. We talked to Senate Minority Leader Steve Harding about this proposal and potential gaps in the bill.
