LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska’s governor says that if the Legislature takes advantage of the U.S. Supreme Court decision to let states collect sales tax from online purchases, the new Nebraska revenue should go toward property tax relief.

The court ruled Thursday that states can force companies operating online to collect taxes, reversing decades-old decisions that had stymied efforts to collect sales taxes on many online transactions.

Nebraska legislation to begin collection of the online sales tax was blocked by a filibuster earlier this year, and Gov. Pete Ricketts said the state should wait for the Supreme Court decision.

The Nebraska measure would have required online retailers to send customers a notice of their total taxable purchases unless the businesses collected the sales tax themselves.
