By Laura Knoy on Wednesday, March 5, 2003.

Supporters say raising New Hampshire's tobacco tax by a dollar per pack could pay for health care and reduce smoking. But most store owners say it would only hurt the state’s economy. Laura's guests are Debbie Carluccio, executive director, the Smoke Free NH Alliance and with New Hampshire Healthy Families Campaign and John Ganos owns the Route 13 Stateline Convenient Mart and the Tobacco Haven in Brookline, NH. He is also a member of the New England Convenient Store Association.
