URGENT: Arizona Affiliates Needed to fight "Amazon Tax" enactment (nexus)

[jkgourmet]

Arizona is just about ready to pass the dreaded nexus rules that will force Amazon and other out of state merchants to charge sales tax. As you all know, this has occurred in other states with the result being that Amazon (and other merchants) dropped ALL their affiliates in those states.

Rebecca Madigan has already testified at the hearings in Arizona, and is now seeking out affiliates in Arizona, primarily so that she will have examples of sites that will explain to the politicians exactly WHAT an affiliate is.

This is important stuff, and I hope someone here will contact her. (and if you are not in Arizona, you should contact her and get involved anyway - your state will be next.)

We are dealing with that here in IL too. I have written our Govenor and lots of affiliates have gone to Springfield to speak to him too.

Sorry to hear it, Angie. Do consider contacting Rebecca at PMA.

Thanks for this information. This has happened to us in North Carolina. Lovely.

Note: Massachusetts has recently submitted H0731, a NY-style affiliate nexus tax bill. Good Luck Mass. and Arizona affiliates!

Here are a couple more sites to keep an eye on:
