Advocacy
With both the U.S. House and Senate clearing a major hurdle by passing the budget resolution, all eyes are shifting to tax as members continue negotiating ways to fund $4T worth of expiring tax cuts. During this time, we are requesting credit unions engage their employees to write to Congress and urge the preservation of the unique structure of credit unions. Defending our tax status ensures credit unions can continue to serve the more than 140 million members nationwide.

Compliance
Credit unions have long understood the importance of consumer protection, but the evolving regulatory landscape makes it crucial to revisit key enforcement concepts. This article takes a closer look at the origins and differences between Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices (UDAP) and Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices (UDAAP), their regulatory impact on credit unions, and what shifting priorities may mean going forward.

Foundation
The Credit Union Impact Foundation has opened the application portal for the Growth and Impact Grant Program. This program includes three distinct grant opportunities: the Community Impact Grant Program, powered by Vizo Financial, and the Credit Union Development Grant Program and Professional Development Grant Program.
