Cell Phone Tax Moratorium Act of 2007

The Cell Phone Tax Moratorium Act of 2007 would prohibit state and local governments from imposing any new taxes on mobile phone services or providers for a period of three years. This ban specifically targets "discriminatory" taxes, which are those applied to cell phones at a higher rate than other goods and services. For everyday citizens, this measure is designed to prevent cell phone bills from rising due to new, industry-specific state or local tax increases during the moratorium.
