It is the sense of the Congress that—

interest rates for mortgages, automobiles, and cer-
tain other loans;
(2) the same low interest rates have not led to
a correspondingly steep reduction in credit card in-
terest rates; and
(3) therefore consumers are paying credit card
interest rates far in excess of what is warranted by
economic conditions.

Section 107 of the Truth in Lending Act (15 U.S.C.
1606) is amended by adding at the end the following new

‘‘(1) IN GENERAL.—The maximum annual per-
centage rate applicable to any credit extended to any
consumer through a credit card account under any
open end consumer credit plan for any period during
which such credit is subject to a finance charge may
not exceed the sum of—
‘‘(A) 9 percent; and
‘‘(B) the average annual percentage yield
on 6-month bills issued by the Secretary of the
Treasury under section 3104(a) of title 31,
United States Code, as determined by the
Board under paragraph (2) for each 6-month
period beginning after the date this subsection
takes effect.
‘‘(2) REGULATIONS.—The Board shall estab-
lish, by regulation, such procedures as the Board de-
termines to be appropriate to implement and admin-
ister this subsection and to enforce under this title
any maximum annual percentage rate computed pur-
suant to paragraph (1).’’.
