Washington D.C. – According to Babette Boliek of AEI, “ If you like lower taxes, using the Internet, and increased investment in broadband infrastructure, you’ll like what the House of Representatives just passed on Wednesday: an act that would permanently ban taxes on Internet access services. The Internet Tax Freedom Act (ITFA) bars state and local governments from placing taxes on Internet access and from imposing discriminatory Internet-only taxes, such as taxes on email services. In other words, this act prevents the list of access taxes you see on the bottom of your telephone bill from also being part of your Internet service provider’s bill.”
