The Security and Freedom Enhancement SAFE Act is legislation proposed by United States Senate Senators Larry Craig Republican Party United States R Idaho ID , John E. Sununu Republican Party United States R New Hampshire NH and Dick Durbin Richard Durbin Democratic Party United States D Illinois IL which would add checks and balances to the USA PATRIOT Act . This legislation, which was introduced in the United States House of Representatives House on April 6, 2005, would curtail some powers of the USA PATRIOT Act by requiring court reviews and reporting requirements. The SAFE Act would also revise the definition of terrorism terrorist to exclude certain groups of people such as anti war protesters and abortion demonstrators. This legislation was introduced to provide an alternative to the USA PATRIOT Act that some felt was too overreaching in its effort to fight terrorism .

This law bars federal, state and local governments from taxing Internet access and from imposing discriminatory Internet taxes Internet only taxes such as bit taxes, bandwidth taxes, and email taxes. The law also bars multiple taxes on electronic commerce . It does not exempt sales made on the Internet from taxation, as these may be taxed at the same state and local sales tax rate as non Internet sales, just like mail order sales. The Act did not repeal any state sales or use tax. It has been thrice extended by the United States Congress since its original enactment. The most recent extension was titled the Internet Tax Nondiscrimination Act Internet Tax FreedomAct Amendment Act of 2007 , signed into law on November 1, 2007, by George W. Bush and extended the moratorium until November 1, 2014. The 1998 law also authorized establishment of a study commission to study national tax policy with regard to the Internet. The Advisory Commission on Electronic Commerce studied the issue from 1999 to 2000. The Commission was chaired by then Virginia Governor James S. Gilmore, III, who led a majority coalition on the Commission to issue a final report opposing taxation of the Internet and eliminating the federal excise tax on telecommunications services, among other ideas.

This legislation has garnered the diverse support of various religious groups including, the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations , the Southern Baptist Convention , the National Council of Churches , the North American Council for Muslim Women , the Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund , the Seventh day Adventist Church , the Council on American Islamic Relations , B nai B rith International , the American Jewish Committee , Agudath Israel of America , the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and other groups.

The ACLU supports a narrowly tailored bill focused on strengthening the federal requirements imposed on employers to accommodate workplace scheduling changes for the observation of religious holidays and the wearing of religious clothing or a beard or hairstyle. They object to the WRFA on the grounds that it is overly broad, and could potentially erode civil rights by permitting workplace religious freedom claims that have been previously rejected by the courts.
