AARP North Dakota Advocacy

Cryptocurrency ATMs (aka crypto kiosks) are everywhere, and have become a rising tool for criminal scammers. AARP North Dakota is urging lawmakers to take action this legislative session. North Dakota House Bill 1447, sponsored by Fargo Rep. Steve Swiontek (R-10), will create important consumer protections to save older North Dakotans from having their life savings stolen by criminals.

You can help by taking action. Let your legislators know you want them to vote YES on HB 1447!
