HB 921 -- State Payroll Checks

Co-Sponsors:  Curls, Thompson, Shelton, Smith, Troupe, Williams,
Bowman, Coleman

This bill compels any state or federally-chartered bank, savings
and loan, or credit union to cash any payroll check issued to a
state employee.  The employee is not required to be a customer
of the institution where the check is presented for cashing.
When the employee is not a customer of the institution, the
institution may charge a check-cashing fee not to exceed the
check cashing fee assessed to its customers.  Institutions that
violate the provisions of the bill would be subject to potential
administrative penalties not to exceed $5,000 per violation.
