Last week, Representative Barbara Comstock (R-VA/10) hosted two eBay sellers – Chris Hansen (C2 Management) and Jeff Bollettino (Metro DC Music) – at her district office for a roundtable policy discussion on Internet sales tax (IST). Since Congress may address the IST issue before the end of the year, it is critical that Members of Congress hear from their constituents about the negative implications of the proposals under consideration. Chris and Jeff effectively illustrated that current IST bills would be overly burdensome to their respective internet-enabled business. Thank you to Chris and Jeff for being great advocates for all US eBay sellers, and a special thanks to Congresswoman Comstock for taking the time to hear from our sellers on this very important issue.
