SEC. 7. (a) This section may be cited as the "State Taxation of Depositories Act". (b) The Congress finds that the national goals of fostering an efficient banking system and the free flow of commerce among the States will be furthered by clarifying the principles governing State taxation of interstate transactions of banks and other depositories. Application of taxes measured by income or receipts, or other "doing business" taxes, in States other than the States in which depositories have their principal offices should be deferred until such time as uniform and equitable methods are developed for determining jurisdiction to tax and for dividing the tax base among States. (c) With respect to any taxable year or other taxable period beginning on or after the date of enactment of this section and before January 1, 1976, no State or political subdivision thereof may impose any tax measured by income or receipts or any other "doing business" tax on any insured depository not having its principal office within such State. (d) For the purpose of this section— (1) The term "insured depository" means any bank the deposits of which are. insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, any institution the accounts of which are insured by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, or any thrift and home financing institution which is a member of a Federal home loan bank. (2) The term "State" means any of the several States of the United States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa. (e)(1) The Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations shall make a study of all pertinent matters relating to the application of State "doing business" taxes on out-of-State commercial banks, mutual savings banks, and savings and loan associations. Such study shall include recommendations for legislation which will provide equitable State taxation of out-of-State commercial banks, mutual
