Washington, Sept. 17, 2014 -- The Wall Street Journal just published a letter to the editor from National Retail Federation (NRF) President and CEO Matthew Shay.

Shay’s letter focuses on the need for Congress to address Internet tax policy – on access as well as sales – before adjournment. As you may already know, NRF supports the internet access tax moratorium as well as online sales tax fairness (efairness) legislation.

There is hope that Congress will address these priorities in the lame duck session (mid-December).
