ARLINGTON, Va. — NAFCU was encouraging its members to communicate with their members of Congress during the recess the last two weeks.
|"We're trying to drum up as much support as possible for CURIA," NAFCU Director of Political Affairs Dillon Shea said. The group has sent postcards out to all of its 800-plus members over the recess, one asking their representative to sign on to the bill and another thanking Congressmen Paul Kanjorski (D-Pa.) and Ed Royce (R-Calif.) for introducing the Credit Union Regulatory Improvements Act (H.R. 1537) again. The two have taken a lot of heat from the banking trades according to Shea. NAFCU was hoping members of Congress will have a bright green stack of postcards waiting for them when they return to Washington, D.C. after the district work period. Officially the bill currently has 47 co-sponsors, including Kanjorski, who is reportedly recovering well from triple bypass surgery. The bill garnered 125 co-sponsors last Congress.
