Retailers work every day to provide the most value to their customers. That's why NRF filed suit today to keep the harmful New York State pricing law from going into effect. Read more here: NRF | NRF Asks Federal Court to Block New York Algorithmic Pricing Law

Please pay attention to what tariffs are already doing to your local main street businesses. Sky-high universal tariffs are not the same as a plan to relocate supply chains to the US.

Small businesses, which make up 98% of retailers and support more than 13 million American jobs, are particularly vulnerable to tariffs.

Way to go @EPC_Updates I think this 0Metal font should absolutely land your terrible message. Small business pays swipe fees. You capture monopoly rents.

If I were still in Congress, this is exactly the kind of thing that would just piss me off. Visa & Mastercard are spending millions lobbying against a bill that will HUGELY benefit small businesses & consumers. Put a spotlight on this. Give it a read.👇

Some misinformation in today's US presidential debate about who bears the cost of tariffs. So let's talk about how tariffs affect what you pay for a suit. đź§µ

Hey @AmericanAir how about you get the paperwork filed for flight 2132 to DCA so we can finally leave? This is abysmal and it’s sweltering on the tarmac. @FAANews

Meeting w/ a small business owner in Peoria, I heard the impact excessive credit card swipe fees have on her business. In 2022 alone, IL merchants & consumers paid $3.8B in cc swipe fees to line the pockets of biggest banks. My Credit Card Competition Act would change that.

@thepointsguy is in business with the banks … not you. Don’t be fooled by big banks and The Points Guy. Their cozy relationship is supplementing The Points Guy’s lavish influencer lifestyle at the cost of small businesses and consumers.

Excessive swipe fees hurt small businesses. It’s time to pass the Credit Card Competition Act.

So. True. This guy is absurd and the hysteria that the banks have ginned up is based on a purposeful misreading of the Credit Card Competition Act.
