This week: America’s Credit Unions engaged as funding negotiations continue
This week, America’s Credit Unions remains engaged on Capitol Hill as lawmakers near the Jan. 19 deadline to secure government funding for four appropriations measures, including Agriculture, Energy, Veterans, Transportation and Housing programs, amongst others. Funding for eight other appropriations bills that fund other areas of the government expires Feb. 2. Congress is expected to consider another round of short-term funding to extend the deadlines to March 1 and 8; the association will monitor efforts and continue to keep credit unions updated.
Of note, America’s Credit Unions Sunday kicked off the Credit Union Board of Directors Conference, where attendees will gain the knowledge and insight needed to develop forward-focused policies that improve the financial lives of members and the communities their credit union serves.
