Always Thinking.

Arnold Palmer once said golf was "deceptively simple and endlessly complicated."

The same can be said for state and local taxes.

Amazon.com Nexus: The Epidemic Continues!

The "Amazon.com" nexus standard or "click-thru" nexus standard continues to spread the country like an epidemic. Since January 1, 2011, 12 states have introduced "click-thru" nexus legislation.  The most recent to do so are:  Texas (HB1317), Massachusetts (HO1731), Tennessee (HB1912) and Minnesota (SB458). 

The other 8 states that introduced legislation this year are Arizona, Hawaii, Illinois, Mississippi, New Mexico, California, Connecticut, and Vermont.  For information on these bills, go to Amazon.com Nexus.

Recent Update Re:  Illinois

Since Illinois introduced its Amazon.com legislation, Illinois has proposed legislation to stop or prevent Amazon.com nexus (SB1783).

Summary

Legislation continues to be introduced, but no one has passed it yet.  New York, North Carolina and Rhode Island continue to be the only states with Amazon.com legislation on its books. 

What will happen next?
