Credit card swipe fees are an inflation multiplier. Capitalism needs competition - our bill introduces competition, not price caps.

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Such an honor to host retail champion @RogerMarshallMD for a very special NACS In Store at @QuikTrip in Wichita today. He talked with employees & customers about the need for competition in the credit card market and how his bill with @SenatorDurbin would do just that. #swipefees

[Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin]

Despite Americans feeling the pressure of inflation, Visa & Mastercard keep hiking up the cost of credit card swipe fees, harming small biz & consumers. It's time we keep these fees in check with my bipartisan Credit Card Competition Act. Learn more here: https://t.co/0H1RGFSsKF

Senator @RogerMarshallMD is out with another noteworthy piece on his efforts to introduce competition into the credit card marketplace through the Credit Card Competition Act - read more here: https://t.co/QqkuK69nmT

“Consumers pay through the nose” because of “the heftiest interchange fees of any major economy” & “poor Americans fare the worst,” @TheEconomist reports.

Great visit with Congressman LaTurner today at Casey’s in Tonganoxie Kansas. Great to show him a beer cave that was added to the Kansas stores as the result of strong beer legislation he helped pass in the State Senate.@caseysgenstore @NACSGR @NACSonline @JakeLaTurner

Breakfast pizza is always #1! Thank you to @RepLaTurner for spending a fantastic morning with us at @caseysgenstore in KS - and please come again soon 😊🍕

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Lynn has been with @caseysgenstore for 22 years and trained @RepLaTurner this morning! She said he was a natural behind the counter! #NACSGR #NACSInStore

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Hi Tonganoxie! It’s a great day to host @RepLaTurner at @caseysgenstore for his first NACS In Store! #NACSGR #NACSInStore

[Merchants Payments Coalition @MerchantsPymnts]

Teddy Roosevelt took on Big Oil. Today, @RogerMarshallMD is taking on Big Credit Cards. His bill would bring competition to Visa & Mastercard #creditcards & address skyrocketing #swipefees. Thank you, Senator!

Most people don’t think about what happens when they swipe their credit card at the checkout - but they should. More competition = lower fees. Hear from @RogerMarshallMD on why we need the Credit Card Competition Act in today’s op-ed. https://t.co/nHjYGHflxr

[Merchants Payments Coalition @MerchantsPymnts]

.@RogerMarshallMD is right: skyrocketing #creditcard #swipefees are “crushing our merchants and raising costs for consumers.” Thanks for fighting for hardworking Kansans by introducing the #CreditCardCompetitionAct!

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Must read op-ed from @RogerMarshallMD on the Credit Card Competition Act: "Every swipe comes with a fee, an ever-increasing fee, invisible to most, but increasingly crushing our merchants and rising costs for consumers across the board."

Convenience stores event check more IDs each day than any other entity, including the TSA. This important industry is often overlooked, so it’s always helpful to have a firsthand look at how they operate.

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Thanks for stopping by @RepJeffDuncan - we loved hosting you! #NACSInStore #NACSGR

[Jeff Duncan @RepJeffDuncan]

Great to check in with @QuikTrip in Clinton yesterday for a National Association of Convenience Stores tour. Thanks for showing me around! Convenience stores deal with a significant amount of federal regulation & face unique challenges from labor shortages to supply chain issues.

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Thank you again @RepJeffDuncan for taking the time to visit @QuikTrip in Clinton, SC and meet with team members and constituents! We love sharing our industry’s story with Members of Congress! #NACSInStore #NACSGR

[NACS Grassroots @NACSGR]

Convenience stores like @QuikTrip pride themselves on being responsible retailers of age restricted products. Did you know our industry checks more IDs per day than the TSA? @RepJeffDuncan #NACSInStore #NACSGR
