CT as well.
In a nutshell, the States are attempting to collect tax revenue from Amazon affiliates sales (not so much the affiliates themselves) because those affiliates reside in said State. Currently no taxes are collected because Amazon does NOT reside in said States or a State with a sales tax, Seattle, Washington. To combat/protest the issue Amazon is teminating all affiliate accounts in said State making the bill/law moot.
In the end the States get nothing and the affiliates lose.
