There is a bill sitting in Congress right now that could shut off 175 million credit cards in America. Not suspend them. Not reduce the limits. Shut them off completely.

On January 10, 2026, President Trump called on Congress to cap credit card interest rates at 10% for one year. Sounds like great news — until you understand what the banks will do in response. The Electronic Payments Coalition's own analysis: 90% of accounts closed or reduced. 175 million Americans affected.

And there's a second bill — the Credit Card Competition Act — that would kill your cashback, travel points, and airline miles on top of it.

In this video I break down exactly what is happening, who gets hit first, what it does to your credit score, and the 5 steps you need to take right now to protect yourself.
