The Taxes & Tips Bill
Kansas bill would stop card fees on taxes and tips
Enacting the consumer inflation reduction and tax fairness act and exempting the portion of a credit card transaction constituting a tax or gratuity from assessment of the fee charged by the card issuer.
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, credit card companies could not charge fees on the tax or tip part of a purchase, so shoppers would pay less.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Consumers could see lower monthly bills and keep more of their money, while banks lose a small fee revenue, so they may push back.
