-------- Original Message -------- Subject: New IPI Report: Return of the Cybertax Date: Mon, 1 Mar 2004 16:39:45 -0500 From: Sonia Hoffman <shoffman@private> To: declan@private Declan: Your readers may be interested in the following new report released by the Institute for Policy Innovation's Center for Technology Freedom. In “Return of the Cybertax,” IPI Visiting Scholar George Pieler explains: "Thanks to Sen. Lamar Alexander and a group of former Governors in the Senate, the states now have power to tax your access to the Internet. Sen. Alexander’s blocking move prevented the Senate from extending the Internet Tax Moratorium that has been standard public policy under both the Clinton and Bush administrations. By asserting state primacy over telecommunications policy and e-commerce, Alexander and his allies are substituting their own twisted constitutional construction for the wisdom of the Founders." Reports are available at www.ipi.org. For further information, please contact: Sonia Hoffman (703) 912-5742 or shoffman@private The Institute for Policy Innovation is a non-partisan, public policy organization. _______________________________________________ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/)
