Text

The legislature finds that a simplified sales tax and use tax system that treats transactions in a competitively neutral manner will strengthen and preserve sales taxes and use taxes as vital revenue sources for this state and its local governments and will help preserve the fiscal sovereignty of this state. The legislature also finds that such a system will substantially reduce the administrative burdens of collection for sellers. While states have the sovereign right to set their own tax policies, states should cooperatively develop a streamlined sales tax and use tax system that is simplified, uniform and fair.
