Overview
Senators Bernie Sanders and Josh Hawley have unveiled legislation to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. This bill responds to President Trump's campaign promise and addresses rising consumer debt. Both senators criticize the high profit margins of credit card companies and argue that the cap would provide necessary relief. Critics, however, express concerns that such a policy may lead to stricter credit access and reduced card rewards. The bill, if enacted, would be in place for five years.
