prohibiting the discrimination against cash buyers in business transactions.
HB 1339 prohibits retail businesses from refusing to sell goods or services solely because a customer wants to pay with cash. It requires all retail establishments to accept legal tender (cash) when offered, eliminating policies that force customers to use credit cards. The law directly affects retailers selling physical goods or services to consumers, ensuring cash buyers cannot be denied transactions. This is a concrete policy change that mandates equal treatment of cash payments alongside other payment methods.
