STATEMENT OF NCTA PRESIDENT & CEO MICHAEL POWELL REGARDING SENATE PASSAGE OF THE PERMANENT INTERNET TAX FREEDOM ACT

“We applaud the Senate on today’s passage of the Permanent Internet Tax Freedom Act Internet (ITFA) and thank Sens. Thune and Wyden for their leadership in shepherding this important legislation throughout the process. Internet access is more than a convenience, it’s critical to the daily lives of Americans. By keeping Internet access free from state and local taxes, ITFA will permanently keep down the cost of connectivity, enable more American consumers and businesses to get online and allow the Internet to further power economic growth. We urge President Obama to sign this important legislation to make ITFA permanent once and for all.”
