WASHINGTON — A resolution by Representatives Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) and Jim Walsh (R-N.Y.) to make September 2007 Federal Credit Union Month is on the schedule for a vote today.
The resolution (H.Res.658) recognizes that federal credit unions were founded on "the principle that persons of good character and all backgrounds, including those of modest means, joining together in cooperative spirit and action, can create thrift, create a source of credit for productive purposes and build a better standard of living for themselves." It further expresses the House of Representatives' recognition of federal credit unions' importance to the economy "and their critical mission in serving those of modest means."
The resolution is on the suspension calendar, 19th of 19 bills, for today. The suspension calendar is used to move non-controversial bills through more quickly.
