Protecting Payment Choice for All Americans
Wednesday, May 27, 2026
Protecting payment choice means protecting access, inclusion, and consumer freedom. Together, we can help ensure cash remains a viable and accessible payment option for all Americans.
Representative John Rose recently spoke on the House floor in support of the Payment Choice Act — bipartisan legislation designed to preserve consumers’ ability to choose how they pay for goods and services.
While highlighting innovation in digital payments and emerging technologies, Rep. Rose also emphasized an important reality: cash continues to play a critical role in economic stability, personal freedom, and national resilience.
ATM Industry Association appreciates Representative Rose and Congressman Donald Norcross's leadership and continued advocacy for preserving payment choice for consumers nationwide.
