“Congress is considering commemorative coins to honor the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Mark Twain and the centennial of Mother’s Day. Now a group of lawmakers wants some change.  Under their legislation, Congress could still issue commemorative coins, but any proceeds – after paying for the coin’s production – would go to deficit reduction ‘instead of becoming a money-maker for private entities,’ said Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), chief sponsor of a Senate bill.”
