John Fletcher, a partner on the state and local tax team in the Jackson office, spoke on the "Taxation of the Digital Economy: The Challenges of Expanding the Tax Base" panel at the Council on State Taxation (COST) 2026 SALT in a Digital World Workshop on March 4, 2026, in Burlingame, California. John discussed the transforming state tax systems as legislatures attempt to broaden tax bases to capture revenue from technology-driven transactions. He also explored the constitutional considerations arising from these proposals and how initiatives like the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement and the Multistate Tax Commission aim to bring uniformity to the dynamic landscape.
