From the PMA:

Today, Tennessee has submitted bill SB 1741/HB 1947 which copies the Colorado sales tax reporting bill. This bill would require out-of-state merchants to report back on all sales made to Tennessee consumers. This isn’t like the typical ad tax that directly targets affiliate marketing, but it can have a serious impact on online merchants. A Finance, Ways and Means committee meeting is scheduled tomorrow, but it doesn’t appear they will take public testimony.

This may still impact Tennessee affiliates if Amazon terminates their associates like they did in Colorado. No word yet on what Amazon’s response will be to this bill.

Here is an article about the constitutionality of the Colorado law.

As a reminder, here is the thread with the Tennessee Legislators Lists

It's GO TIME TN Affiliates and Merchants!

I just got this email from Rep. Mark Maddox:

I think I have it killed. I will let you know after 5 today if not.

WOOHOO!

3 more hours folks and this could be dead in the water.
