Convenience stores like QuikTrip pride themselves on being responsible retailers of age restricted products. Did you know our industry checks more IDs per day than the TSA? Jeff Duncan #NACSInStore #NACSGR

Convenience stores event check more IDs each day than any other entity, including the TSA. This important industry is often overlooked, so it’s always helpful to have a firsthand look at how they operate.

Must read op-ed from Dr. Roger Marshall on the Credit Card Competition Act: "Every swipe comes with a fee, an ever-increasing fee, invisible to most, but increasingly crushing our merchants and rising costs for consumers across the board." Read more at: kansascity.com/opinion/reader…

.Dr. Roger Marshall is right: skyrocketing #creditcard #swipefees are “crushing our merchants and raising costs for consumers.” Thanks for fighting for hardworking Kansans by introducing the #CreditCardCompetitionAct! #FightSwipeflation Visa Mastercard kansascity.com/opinion/reader…

Most people don’t think about what happens when they swipe their credit card at the checkout - but they should. More competition = lower fees. Hear from Dr. Roger Marshall on why we need the Credit Card Competition Act in today’s op-ed. kansascity.com/opinion/reader…

Teddy Roosevelt took on Big Oil. Today, Dr. Roger Marshall is taking on Big Credit Cards. His bill would bring competition to Visa & Mastercard #creditcards & address skyrocketing #swipefees. Thank you, Senator! #CreditCardCompetitionAct #FightSwipeFlation washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-amer…

Great visit with Congressman LaTurner today at Casey’s in Tonganoxie Kansas. Great to show him a beer cave that was added to the Kansas stores as the result of strong beer legislation he helped pass in the State Senate.Casey's NACS Grassroots NACS Jake LaTurner

“Consumers pay through the nose” because of “the heftiest interchange fees of any major economy” & “poor Americans fare the worst,” The Economist reports. #CreditCardCompetitionAct #swipefees Senator Dick Durbin Dr. Roger Marshall National Retail Federation The Points Guy economist.com/finance-and-ec…

Despite Americans feeling the pressure of inflation, Visa & Mastercard keep hiking up the cost of credit card swipe fees, harming small biz & consumers. It's time we keep these fees in check with my bipartisan Credit Card Competition Act. Learn more here: wsj.com/video/series/w…

Such an honor to host retail champion Dr. Roger Marshall for a very special NACS In Store at QuikTrip in Wichita today. He talked with employees & customers about the need for competition in the credit card market and how his bill with Senator Dick Durbin would do just that. #swipefees

Credit card swipe fees are an inflation multiplier. Capitalism needs competition - our bill introduces competition, not price caps.
