H.R. 10167

Common Cents Act

Financial Services Committee · Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI)

The bill would stop the U.S. Treasury from minting pennies for general circulation (though pennies would remain legal tender) and require cash transactions to be rounded to the nearest nickel. It would also allow the Treasury to change the material composition of nickels and establish procedures for discontinuing other coins if Congress is notified.[AI-Generated]
