This measure would change the wording in Section 101(d) of Public Law 86-272. It adds a definition saying that "solicitation of orders" includes any business activity that helps solicit orders, even if that activity also has some separate business purpose.
The text provided shows the measure was introduced on January 15, 2025, and was referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. Sponsors listed are Scott Fitzgerald, Glenn Grothman, Thomas Tiffany, and Bryan Steil.
The change broadens the statutory meaning of "solicitation of orders." That could affect how certain business actions are classified when states look at whether those activities relate to solicitation. The bill text itself defines the new meaning but does not describe specific effects on taxpayers, businesses, or state tax decisions.
