Policymakers must investigate what’s truly driving credit union acquisitions of community banks. It’s time to end the free ride that's accelerating industry consolidation and hurting local communities. #banklocally #SomethingIsWrong

J.D. Vance’s staff has told lobbyists he won’t advocate for credit card fee legislation he co-sponsored. He has “backed off a little bit of his misguided support for that,” @RepAndyBarr told me. Story w/@Eleanor_Mueller: subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/0…
