House Democratic leader
Dick Gephardt on Tuesday outlined support for tax breaks and regulatory relief
to keep the "technology revolution on track" but declined to endorse a permanent
ban on sales taxes for Internet transactions. Gephardt called for phasing out a
102-year-old telecommunications excise tax of 3%; he also favored a permanent
extension of the research and development tax credit and liberalized
depreciation rules for computers.
