Oregon bill would prevent some retailers from charging fees for credit card transactions

Sen. Floyd Prozanski told colleagues senators on the Senate Committee on Labor and Business Thursday that if a retailer in Oregon requires a customer to pay with a credit or debit card, they should not be permitted to charge that customer a credit card transaction fee.

Senate Bill 425, which would forbid shops from charging those fees if they do not accept cash, is sponsored by Prozanski, a Democrat from Eugene.
