This Week: Congress out, ‘Crash the GAC’ deadline approaches

Congress is out this week for the Thanksgiving holiday, but will return next week with a full slate of hearings, including the postponed House Financial Services Committee hearing with testimony from federal financial regulators. 

Young credit union professionals have until Monday, Dec. 1 to apply to “crash” the Governmental Affairs Conference 2026. Now in its 17th year, the Crash the GAC program will sponsor 55 young professionals to attend GAC from March 1-5, in Washington, D.C.

The deadline is also open through Dec. 16 for NCUA’s Community Development Revolving Loan Fund 2025 grant round, with award funds available in six categories.  

Stay tuned to America’s Credit Unions’ news for additional updates on issues of importance to credit unions. 

America’s Credit Unions offices will be closed Thursday and Friday in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday.
