- AARP is urging Arizonans to vote 'NO,' on Proposition 200, because it allows the Pay Day Loan industry to circumvent the legal loan interest cap of 36%APR, and to charge as much as 400%APR. It's time to put this industry out-of-business - which will happen, in 2010, because of previous legislation - but it will not happen, if Prop 200 passes! Vote 'NO!'
