Sen. John McCain’s COINS Act may lead to exotic dancers receiving larger bills as tips, reports the Hill:
The Arizona Republican joined Sens. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.) and Mark Udall (D-Colo.) in introducing the COINS Act last month. Advocates for the measure contend that saying sayonara to George Washingtons in favor of coins would save the government billions of dollars.
One Washington, D.C., gentlemen’s club owner said the legislation could cause problems for strippers but McCain refuted the claim.
[…] McCain responded without missing a beat, "Then I hope that they could obtain larger denominations."
The 76-year-old lawmaker began answering another reporter’s prying questions before cracking a smile and hollering to ITK down a Capitol hallway, "Fives, tens, one-hundreds!"
