COMMERCE: Urges and requests the attorney general to study the use of pennies and credit card fees by businesses

Summary

The House and Senate passed a resolution asking the state attorney general to conduct a comprehensive study of how businesses round cash transactions now that pennies are no longer produced, and how they charge convenience fees for credit or debit card use. The study will examine consumer impacts, especially on low‑income and elderly residents, and will consider whether uniform rules are needed. Findings will be reported to key legislative committees.
