This is a good step towards preventing a cashless society, with the privacy and equity problems outlined in this testimony, from taking hold in Connecticut. We encourage the Committee to support HB 5312.
House Bill 5312, An Act Concerning Acceptable Forms of Currency as Payment in Local Businesses
HB 5312 prohibits cashless operations in in person retail transactions, as well as prevents businesses from charging higher prices to customers paying cash.
