The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

(Ignored Yapper) quoted by Steve203: Anyhow, Where is Bernie? Where is Warren? Where's the bill in support of this --daring Trump to sign it?

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, along with Representative Anna Paulina Luna, introduced legislation in the House of Representatives to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. The bill, H.R. 1944, was introduced in March 2025 and is known as the "10 Percent Credit Card Interest Rate Cap Act".

Companion legislation (S. 381) was introduced in the Senate by Senators Bernie Sanders and Josh Hawley.

The legislation died in the House Committee on Financial Services.

Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders had previously introduced the Loan Shark Prevention Act in 2019.

Trumpedo is resurrecting the legislation because this is an election year.

And the Epstein files.
