Flanked by members of the White House Competition Council he created after taking office, President Joe Biden on Wednesday urged Congress to pass the Junk Fee Prevention Act at the council’s fourth meeting.

Part of that legislation would cap credit card late fees at around $8 and eliminate or limit other charges, Biden said.
