This resolution calls on the federal government to mandate the acceptance of cash as a form of payment at all points of service, emphasizing the importance of cash as legal tender under U.S. law. It references the U.S. Constitution and various legal statutes that affirm the status of U.S. coins and currency as valid for settling debts and public charges. The resolution highlights concerns that not accepting cash undermines the credibility of the currency and places undue burdens on citizens who may not have access to electronic payment methods.

Furthermore, the resolution points out that certain government agencies and vendors have imposed convenience fees for electronic transactions while refusing to accept cash, which is seen as a violation of legal tender laws. It specifically mentions instances at federal facilities, such as national parks and museums, where cash is not accepted for services. The resolution ultimately seeks to ensure that all federal agencies and their subcontractors comply with the requirement to accept cash payments, reinforcing the principle that cash remains a viable and necessary option for all transactions.
