Rep. Cohen to Refile Digital Goods and Services Tax Fairness Act

Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., plans to reintroduce legislation preventing multiple taxation of digital goods by setting sourcing rules for digital goods and services purchases (see 1903130071). The Digital Goods and Services Tax Fairness Act implements the Internet Tax Freedom Act’s ban on multiple taxes on e-commerce sales. The lack of a federal framework has “led to a patchwork of state tax laws that confuses consumers and stifles the digital economy,” Cohen wrote in a dear colleague letter.
