Senator Mark Udall Key Vote to Taxing the Internet

Dear Erick, Inside sources report your senator, Mark Udall, may be the deciding vote on taxing the Internet.    And the vote is likely to take place next week.   In a payoff to massive retailers such as Walmart, as well as state and local governments hungry to spend even more of your tax dollars, Senator Harry Reid is about to ram through a federally mandated Internet sales tax.   Reid is so desperate to get his way that he completely skipped the committee process to bring the bill to the floor.   The last time this issue was voted on, your senator sided with high-priced D.C. lobbyists, big corporations, and establishment insiders to support the National Internet Tax Mandate. That’s why it’s absolutely critical you turn up the pressure right away by calling Senator Udall at 202-224-5941. Urge him to stand with the taxpayers by opposing the National Internet Tax Mandate on every vote. As a reminder, this Mandate: Allows states to tax businesses without any “physical presence” in their state, ignoring the standard established by the Supreme Court in Quill v. North Dakota. Essentially provides big-spending governors with new bailout money through the federal government imposing more taxes on their citizens.  Virginia’s “Tax Hike Bob” McDonnell is even counting on it to help fund his transportation boondoggle! Forces you to pay higher taxes if you buy goods online, even if you live in a state with no sales taxes! Removes any downward pressure on sales tax rates, since many individuals and businesses required to pay them will be located out of state and have little, if any, recourse against politicians who hike tax rates. Frees tax collectors in one state to pursue retailers across state lines. Opens the door for governments to access and keep records of our Internet purchases. A truly conservative, limited government approach to the issue would see brick-and-mortar businesses trying to reduce the heavy hand of government taxation and regulation so they could better compete with online businesses. Not forcing online retailers to remain in compliance with thousands of tax jurisdictions and ripping more money away from hard-working Americans during these rough economic times! If enough liberty-minded Americans raise their voices, you and I can halt this statist plan in its tracks. One phone call to oppose more taxing power for Big Government bureaucrats takes less than a minute to make. So please contact Senator Udall right away at 202-224-5941. Let’s show Harry Reid that no matter how many attacks he throws our way, the liberty movement will never stop fighting back. In Liberty, John Tate President P.S.  Inside sources have told me Harry Reid could force a vote in the Senate on the National Internet Tax Mandate next week. The last time this issue was voted on, your senator sided with high-priced D.C. lobbyists, big corporations, and establishment insiders to support the National Internet Tax Mandate. So please turn up the pressure right away by calling Senator Udall at 202-224-5941 and urging him to oppose the National Internet Tax Mandate on every vote.
