    Like husband, like wife

    Later this morning, Assemblywoman Audra Strickland is hosting a press conference to press for her bill, AB 2621, which would eliminate the sales tax on gasoline. The bill, which comes before the Assembly Revenue and Taxation committee today, may garner some added attention as fuel prices have shot up in the last two months.

    The Strickland bill comes only a couple weeks after another Strickland, her husband, former assemblyman and GOP state controller candidate Tony Strickland, made some news by giving away loose change at area gas stations to compensate motorists for the state's sales tax on gasoline.
