Dodd (for himself and Mr. Shelby) to the bill H.R. 627, to amend the

relating to the extension of credit under an open end consumer credit

follows:

On page 14, lines 20 and 21, after ``creditor.'' insert the
following:
``(m) No Interest Charges on Fees.--With respect to a
credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan,
if the creditor imposes a transaction fee on the obligor,
including a cash advance fee, late fee, over-the-limit fee,
or balance transfer fee, the creditor may not impose or
collect interest with respect to such fee amount.''.
