2012 House Bill 5468: Revise prepaid cell phone contract 9-1-1 tax (House Roll Call 248)
Passed 106 to 3 in the House on May 3, 2012, to replace current taxes imposed on pre-paid cell phone service to cover the cost of government 9-1-1 service, with a new 1.92 percent levy imposed at the point of sale (like sales tax). The current 9-1-1 service tax regime would still apply to other kinds of cell phone accounts.

This tax seems like it would mostly effect the poor and military service members... who are the ones most likely to purchase pre-paid cell service. I say no new taxes.
