Lawmakers' attempt to override Governor Jindal's veto of HB 591 failed to rally a 2/3rds majority vote in the House today. That means 4-cents of Louisiana's 36-cent tax on tobacco will expire next year.

Governor Jindal says he vetoed the bill because failing to block a tax reduction is the same as passing a new tax, something he has promised not to do.
