53% : With Rhode Island lawmakers likely to approve legislation this year that would legalize the sale of marijuana to adults, mayors and town managers49% : Under Governor Dan McKee's proposed budget, marijuana would be taxed at roughly 20 percent, and 15 percent of revenues would be distributed to cities and towns.
45% : When it comes to taxes, the League is asking the General Assembly to reforming the tangible tax structure, tweaking the 4 percent cap on property taxes to make an exception for new development in cities and towns, and continuing the phase out of the car tax (which is in McKee's proposed budget).
