June 19, 2008Senate Housing Bill Requires eBay, Amazon, Google, and All Credit CardCompanies to Report Transactions to the GovernmentBroad, invasive provision touches nearly every aspect of American commerce.Contact: Adam BrandonPhone: 202-942-7612Email: abrandon@freedomworks.orgWashington, DC - Hidden deep in Senator Christopher Dodd's 630-page Senatehousing legislation is a sweeping provision that affects the privacy andoperation of nearly all of AmericaŹ¼s small businesses. The provision, whichwas added by the bill's managers without debate this week, would requirethe nation's payment systems to track, aggregate, and report information onnearly every electronic transaction to the federal government.Call Congress and Tell Them to Oppose The eBay Reporting Provision in theHousing Bill: 1-866-928-3035FreedomWorks Chairman Dick Armey commented: "This is a provision withastonishing reach, and it was slipped into the bill just this week. Not onlydoes it affect nearly every credit card transaction in America, such as Visa,MasterCard, Discover, and American Express, but the bill specifically targetspayment systems like eBay's PayPal, Amazon, a that areused by many small online businesses. The privacy implications forAmerica's small businesses are breathtaking.""Privacy groups like the Center for Democracy and Technology and smallbusiness organizations like the NFIB sharply criticized this idea when it firstappeared earlier this year. What is the federal government's purpose withthis kind of detailed data? How will this database be secured, and who willhave access? Many small proprietors use their Social Security number as theirtax ID. How will their privacy be protected? What compliance costs will thisimpose on businesses? Why is Sen. Chris Dodd putting this provision in ahousing bailout bill? The bill also includes the creation of a new nationalfingerprint registry for mortgage brokers."At a time when concerns about both identity theft and government spyingare paramount, Congress wants to create a new honey pot of private data thatincludes Social Security numbers. This bill reduces privacy acrossAmerica's payment processing systems and treats every American smallbusiness or eBay power seller like a criminal on parole by requiring anunprecedented level of reporting to the federal government. This outrageousidea is another reason to delay the housing bailout legislation so thatSenators and the public at large have time to examine its fullimplications."From the Senate Bill Summary:Payment Card and Third Party Network Information Reporting. The proposalrequires information reporting on payment card and third party networktransactions. Payment settlement entities, including merchant acquiring banksand third party settlement organizations, or third party payment facilitatorsacting on their behalf, will be required to report the annual gross amount ofreportable transactions to the IRS and to the participating payee. Reportabletransactions include any payment card transaction and any third party networktransaction. Participating payees include persons who accept a payment card aspayment and third party networks who accept payment from a third partysettlement organization in settlement of transactions. A payment card means anycard issued pursuant to an agreement or arrangement which provides for standardsand mechanisms for settling the transactions. Use of an account number or otherindicia associated with a payment card will be treated in the same manner as apayment card. A de minimis exception for transactions of $10,000 or less and200 transactions or less applies to payments by third party settlementorganizations. The proposal applies to returns for calendar years beginningafter December 31, 2010. Back-up withholding provisions apply to amounts paidafter December 31, 2011. This proposal is estimated to raise $9.802 billionover ten years.-30- | ||||||||||||
