AJC: Georgia lawmakers to move quickly to increase tax collections on internet sales
Senate leaders plan to move quickly to get companies to collect and remit more taxes on internet sales in hopes of shoring up Georgia’s shaky budget.
Senate Finance Chairman Chuck Hufstetler, R-Rome, said he has worked with House colleagues since last session on an agreement that would close a loophole that allows many online retailers to skip sending in taxes on their sales.
