Statement of NCTA Regarding Introduction of the Internet Tax Freedom Forever Act

“We applaud Chairman Thune, Sen. Wyden and the 38 additional co-sponsors for introducing the Internet Tax Freedom Forever Act. This important legislation will make the Internet tax moratorium permanent, and helps protect consumers and small businesses from onerous state and local taxes on Internet access. By enacting a permanent ban on Internet access taxes, we can promote the continued growth of the Internet and encourage more Americans to connect to this critical technology. We urge Congress to act swiftly on the Internet Tax Freedom Forever Act."
