The League of Credit Unions President Samantha Beeler and America’s Credit Unions senior leaders also participated in the discussions on how the league system can improve the environment in which credit unions operate.

Conversations like these reinforce the strength of collaboration and cooperation throughout the system."

Simpson emphasized continued collaboration with The League and America’s Credit Unions to collect and amplify stories of credit union service to members. The credit unions shared input on the impact and costs of fraud, the importance of regulatory relief, and other advocacy priorities at the federal and state level.
