DEMOCRATS FAIL (AT LEAST FOR NOW) TO PROTECT NET USERS FROM TAXES
[SOURCE: C-Net|News.com, AUTHOR: Declan McCullagh]
[Commentary] The Senate Commerce Committee did not vote on a bill that would have extended a ban on Internet access taxes. The ban is set to expire November 1. Sen John Sununu (R-NH) said, "We introduced a bill to permanently ban Internet access taxes back in January. I just don't understand the continued delay in action. The clock continues to tick, placing Internet tax freedom in real jeopardy."
