10		to the consumer by the seller or shall be otherwise disclosed
11		to the consumer. If the seller does not separately state the
12		surcharge as a distinct item to the consumer as provided in
13		this Section, then the seller shall maintain books and records
14		as required by this Act which clearly identify the amount of
15		the 9-1-1 surcharge for retail transactions.
16		For purposes of this subsection (b), a retail transaction
17		occurs in this State if (i) the retail transaction is made in
18		person by a consumer at the seller's business location and the

20		for retail transactions.

8		transaction which does not occur in person at a seller's
9		business location, if a consumer uses a credit card to
10		purchase prepaid wireless telecommunications service on-line
11		or over the telephone, and no product is shipped to the

23		collected by a seller shall constitute a debt owed by the
24		seller to this State, and any such surcharge actually
25		collected shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
26		Department.

HB3641 Enrolled - 66 - LRB103 30390 HLH 56820 b

9		included in the base for measuring any tax, fee, surcharge, or
10		other charge that is imposed by this State, any political
11		subdivision of this State, or any intergovernmental agency.
12		(e) (Blank).
13		(e-5) Any changes in the rate of the surcharge imposed by a
14		municipality under the authority granted in subsection (a-5)
15		of this Section shall be effective on the first day of the
16		first calendar month to occur at least 60 days after the
17		enactment of the change. The Department shall provide not less
18		than 30 days' notice of the increase or reduction in the rate
19		of such surcharge on the Department's website.
20		(f) When prepaid wireless telecommunications service is
21		sold with one or more other products or services for a single,
22		non-itemized price, then the percentage specified in
23		subsection (a) or (a-5) of this Section 15 shall be applied to
24		the entire non-itemized price unless the seller elects to
25		apply the percentage to (i) the dollar amount of the prepaid
26		wireless telecommunications service if that dollar amount is

HB3641 Enrolled - 67 - LRB103 30390 HLH 56820 b
1		disclosed to the consumer or (ii) the portion of the price that
2		is attributable to the prepaid wireless telecommunications
3		service if the retailer can identify that portion by
4		reasonable and verifiable standards from its books and records
5		that are kept in the regular course of business for other
6		purposes, including, but not limited to, books and records
7		that are kept for non-tax purposes. However, if a minimal
8		amount of prepaid wireless telecommunications service is sold
9		with a prepaid wireless device for a single, non-itemized
10		price, then the seller may elect not to apply the percentage
11		specified in subsection (a) or (a-5) of this Section 15 to such
12		transaction. For purposes of this subsection, an amount of
13		service denominated as 10 minutes or less or $5 or less is
14		considered minimal.
15		(g) The prepaid wireless 9-1-1 surcharge imposed under
16		subsections (a) and (a-5) of this Section is not imposed on the
17		provider or the consumer for wireless Lifeline service where
18		the consumer does not pay the provider for the service. Where
19		the consumer purchases from the provider optional minutes,
20		texts, or other services in addition to the federally funded
21		Lifeline benefit, a consumer must pay the prepaid wireless
22		9-1-1 surcharge, and it must be collected by the seller
23		according to subsection (b-5).

10		world history is known as the Holocaust, during which
11		6,000,000 Jews and millions of non-Jews were exterminated. One
12		of the universal lessons of the Holocaust is that national,

20		Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda, and Sudan. The studying of this
21		material is a reaffirmation of the commitment of free peoples
22		from all nations to never again permit the occurrence of
23		another Holocaust and a recognition that crimes of genocide
24		continue to be perpetrated across the globe as they have been
25		in the past and to deter indifference to crimes against
