House of Representatives
Common Cents Act
“I want taxpayers to stop spending so much money making pennies. Right now it costs almost 4 cents to make 1 cent. This wastes money. I want this bill to pass. It makes sense. It will save the government money. Other countries stopped using pennies and they are fine. The bill says businesses can round to the nearest nickel if they want. People can keep the pennies they have. But the government should stop making more pennies. Let's stop wasting money on pennies.”
