When you go online to buy clothing, furnishings, or children’s toys, you may not realize that your simple transaction has become a controversial part of a political fight that threatens to reduce consumer choice and impose chaos on small and mid-size remote sellers.

States around the country have begun to pass a hodge-podge of unconstitutional laws and regulations intended to force online and catalog retail businesses to collect sales tax on your purchases, even if the business has no physical presence in your state.

About the Author
Led by the American Catalog Mailers Association (ACMA), Direct Marketing Association (DMA), the Electronic Retailing Association (ERA), and NetChoice, TruST believes that Congress should not overturn the physical presence standard in Quill without first requiring by statute the simplification of sales and use taxes within the States as well as simplification of the administrative requirements for collection and auditing of those taxes.
