As part of the 1998 Internet Tax Freedom Act, the US Congress established the Advisory Commission on Electronic Commerce to "study federal, state, local and international taxation and tariffs on transactions using the Internet and Internet access." The nineteen commission members range from US state governors to the presidents of some of the most powerful technology companies in the world. On the ACES site is the electronic library for the commission, which includes a fully searchable database of ACEC documents, many available in full text in .pdf format. Information on the commission and its members, press information, and the calendar of events round out the site.
