markwayne mullin just dropped a bill that could drain your bank account on every online purchase
If you buy anything online—from groceries to gadgets to holiday gifts—Senator Markwayne Mullin wants you to pay more. The Oklahoma Republican just introduced the SALE Act, a new bill that would force every state to collect sales tax on all remote and online purchases, effectively ending the "tax-free" loophole many of us use when buying from out-of-state retailers. For the average American family, that’s an extra $200 to $500 a year out of your wallet, with no new services in return. Critics warn this isn't about "fairness" for local shops—it's a tax hike on your everyday spending, masked as economic policy. Before you click "checkout" next week, your cart just got more expensive.
