On June 11, U.S.
Representatives Zoe Lofgren and Ted Franks reintroduced the "Wireless Tax
Fairness Act." As of this posting, H.R. 2309 has collected 162
co-sponsors. The bill would put a five-year moratorium in place on new
discriminatory state and local wireless taxes and fees.
For more on the
merits of the Wireless Tax Fairness Act and the concerns it seeks to address,
see my blog post "Calling
for a Moratorium on New Discriminatory Wireless Taxes."
In the last Congress this legislation passed the House on a voice vote.
H.R. 2309 deserves a serious look, this time by both chambers.
