Philadelphia could become 1st major US city with soda tax

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Philadelphia could soon become the first major U.S. city to adopt a tax on sugary drinks.

Mayor Jim Kenney proposed a 3-cent-an-ounce tax on soda and other sugary beverages to pay for universal prekindergarten, community schools and park improvements.

The City Council is scheduled to take a key vote Wednesday on what is expected to be a compromise measure.
