BATSA, Amazon Tax

Kudos to Joe, my boss at the tax foundation, for providing much of the meat in this New York Sun post on the Business Activity Tax Simplification Act.

"States are increasingly reaching out across their borders to tax out-of-state revenue," the tax counsel for the Washington-based Tax Foundation, Joseph Henchman, said. "BATSA would restrain many of these, while the Amazon tax is an example of one of these efforts."

The Tax Foundation has been in the news quite a bit lately.
