Virginia Nears Passage of Flat Tax on Wireless Service

Jeffrey Silva writes on RCR Wireless News:

Virginia’s Senate Finance Committee approved legislation creating a flat tax for mobile phone service and other communications offerings, moving closer to possible passage of a bill with national implications.

The Senate panel agreed to the bill Tuesday by a 12 to 2 vote, with one abstention. The full Senate is set to vote tomorrow on the communications tax measure, sponsored by Delegate Samuel Nixon Jr. (R). Last year, a similar bill backed by Nixon and Sen. Jay O’Brien (R) was thwarted in the Senate.
