Will business make sure to price their products so that when customers have to pay, and taxes are accounted for, it will always be rounded up to the nearest nickel? I guess that's not really a question, of course they will.

After waiting for about a week, I see no amendments have been proposed. So I am bringing this to a final vote.

Please vote aye, nay, or abstain.



Nay.

Current tally: 3 ayes, 5 nays

This has enough votes to fail. Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.
