Make phone tax cap permanent, groups urge

Three national taxpayer groups want to see a permanent end to phone taxes that are costing American consumers billions of dollars.

"Phone taxes are out of control in America. Wireless customers pay a crippling $21 billion per year in taxes and fees," the groups said in a statement issued today. "American consumers deserve less taxation and more common sense from their government. We encourage the FCC to move forward immediately with needed reforms to further rein in the runaway Universal Service Fund."
