WHO WE ARE GET INVOLVED CANDIDATE SURVEYS ON THE ISSUES ABOUT AUDIT THE FED

GOP Turncoats Support Internet Sales Taxes

Friday's vote on Senator Enzi's (R-WY) so-called "Marketplace Fairness Act" was a gift for the liberty movement.

Before Friday, it wasn't clear where the Senate stood on what really ought to be called the National Internet Tax Mandate.

Thanks to their vote, now we know... and it wasn't pretty for Senate Republicans.

Twenty-six Senate R's sided with Senators Alexander, Durbin, and Enzi to embrace the tax-and-spend status quo, flip the original intent of the Commerce Clause on its head, and "deputize" small online retailers as states' "tax collectors."

Below, we've assembled a list of Republican senators who voted in favor of Enzi's amendment, along with a variety of contact methods.
