This has nothing to do with the Federal government. This bill only allows states to collect taxes.

  I'm aware of that. California does not need to tax people more for the exact same reasons. Competition between brick and mortar stores and Amazon is a smokescreen. Tax deals are given to big box stores all the time, to this day. The whole "protecting small business from online competition" angle is a ruse.

    They're not taxing you more. You already need to report and pay any sales tax that you didn't not pay on items purchases over the Internet. The so called Internet tax moratorium was not an actual ban on taxes, instead it did not allow states to force Internet entities to collect sales tax. This removes that barrier.
