While MCUL takes no position on the issue of cannabis legalization, it supports legislation in the 116th Congress that would provide a safe harbor for financial institutions to serve their members needs in states where cannabis use has become legal. MCUL supports the SAFE Banking Act of 2019, H.R. 1595 and S. 1200 which would provide a safe harbor for credit unions and other financial institutions. MCUL supports S. 1564 and H.R. 3182, legislation that would result in a delay and study of FASB's CECL accounting standard until more in understood about it's impact on consumers, the economy and financial institutions, including credit unions.
