The California and Nevada Credit Union Leagues wants to thank those who participated in last week’s League Political Reception! You can view photos of the event here.

The event was a success as credit union leaders had the opportunity to meet face to face with pro-business democrats from California and Nevada. They also met with the newest democrats in Congress from both states to discuss important issues impacting the credit union movement.

The League Political Reception came on the heels of last week's bipartisan spending package bill on Capitol Hill that President Joe Biden signed into law on March 11, including the Credit Union Governance Modernization Act. This bill — championed by the Leagues and the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) — will keep credit union members and employees safe by creating a framework for federal credit unions to swiftly remove a member for cause.

Additionally, the massive omnibus budget bill extends funding of the federal government from March 11 to Sept. 30 and includes CUNA-League items of interest (read "CUs Win Victory on Capitol Hill; Press Forward on Other Fronts").
