Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - One Cent News: House unanimously passed legislation directing the Treasury Secretary to stop minting pennies but maintain one-cent coin's status as legal tender. The bipartisan Common Cents Act by Reps. Lisa McClain (R-MI) and Robert Garcia (D-CA) that was approved by voice vote would also require cash transactions to be rounded up or down to the nearest 5 cents. The bill now heads to the Senate. @cspan
