Please pass the Marketplace Fairness Act which will allow state governments to force Internet retailers to collect sales taxes from their customers. The proceeds would then be sent to state and local governments, just as our brick-and-mortar retailers have done for decades. We need this revenue and it's only fair!
Why is this important?
Corporations like Amazon aren't required to pay sales tax while Main Street [Mom and Pop] retailers still do. As usual, the big boys get to play by different rules; and the little people lose on this uneven playing field. We need this sales tax revenue in our states, counties and cities!
