Small Businesses Under Pressure: Debit Card Fee Battles and Independent Contractor Policy Changes
Hello and welcome to the legislative, regulatory, and tax section.
My name is Amelia Mann, and I’m the legislative and tax liaison for CEO.
Today, we’re going to talk about how financial regulations and labor policy changes are creating new challenges for small businesses across the country. Efforts to challenge the federal debit card processing fee cap reflect growing concerns about rising transaction costs, limited competition, and the financial strain these fees place on business owners.
