🚨BREAKING: The Colorado Senate just passed the flawed, anti-veteran Credit Card Chaos Bill. The corporate mega-store backed bill risks higher costs and would create widespread confusion at checkout. If signed into law, Colorado families will pay the price.

🚨New PA bills threaten to cut the state off from global payments - raising costs and hitting families and small businesses hardest.
“By carving out Pennsylvania from the global payments network, the legislation risks siphoning investment out of local communities, raising operational costs, and making life less affordable and more inconvenient for families and small businesses.” – Duncan Campbell (@PABankers), Patrick Conway (@CrossStateCUA), and Kevin Shivers (@PaCommBankers)

“The biggest beneficiaries of this bill are multibillion dollar corporations like Yum, McDonald’s and Walmart. They’re the ones who push for it, and they’re the ones who pocket the savings.”
Colorado small businesses know SB 26-134 means credit card chaos, higher costs, and more headaches.
Contact your lawmakers NOW and tell them to oppose SB 26-134.

Reject the bill.
DCUC) joined a broad coalition of financial services organizations urging Congress to reject the Credit Card Competition Act, also known as the Durbin-Marshall bill, and any expansion of the Durbin amendment. Increased government intervention in the U.S. credit card market would harm consumers, small businesses, and community-based financial institutions.
