South Dakota legislators are meeting in special session in Pierre today. Lawmakers are being asked to approve legislation that will complete a legal case that allows states to receive sales taxes from online sellers.

Governor Dennis Daugaard says Wayfair, the defendant, has not signaled if they will appeal….

Daugaard says SB – 1 opens up most remote sellers to state taxation…

The other bill, SB – 2, provides for tax collection from marketplace sellers.

Daugaard says it has been a long legal battle…

Legislators are expected to debate and pass the bills later this afternoon.
