Lapses by the retail industry/merchants in securing consumer information continue to be extremely problematic and costly to consumers and financial institutions. MCUL is advocating that Congress hold retailers to the same or similar data security standards as the financial service industry has to abide by and require retailers notify credit unions sooner once a breach occurs. Currently, we are not supporting any specific legislation. MCUL supports modernizing the Federal Credit Union Act (FCUA). The financial service industry is rapidly changing. Advancements in technology, including high speed internet connectivity, have significantly change our society and how financial institutions do business. Updating the FCUA has become necessary to ensure federally chartered credit unions have the powers and flexibility to be competitive and members can benefit from new technology. We are currently supporting H.R. 1661, a bill that would provide the NCUA flexibility to increase non-mortgage loan maturity limits for federal credit unions. We are also supporting H.R. 2305 and S.2834, a bill that would exempt business loans to veterans from the member business loan cap. Additionally, we support S. 3233 to allow expulsion for cause of an unruly member; S. 3326, to remove outdated duties for credit union boards and remove the requirement for credit unions to provide NCUA with the names of its loan officers from the FCUA; and the Board Governance Modernization Act, to modify the FCUA requirement that credit union boards meet once a month to not less than six times per year. MCUL is monitoring developments for GSE/housing finance reform and will advocate to make sure any reforms reflect the significant role credit unions play in the secondary mortgage market and we will defend against anything that is potentially harmful to credit unions and our members. MCUL supports congressional efforts, including H.R. 2514, the COUNTER Act, and S.2563, the ILLICIT CASH Act, to reform bank secrecy act/anti-money laundering reforms and provide financial institutions relief from unnecessary, duplicate and burdensome rules. MCUL supported/supports passage of legislation making reforms to the Paycheck Protection Act, including the Paycheck Protection Flexibility Act of 2020 (P.L. 116-142), S. 4116 (extending the authority under PPP until August 8), and the Paycheck Protection Small Business Forgiveness Act (S. 4117). We are also requesting Congress include in any Phase 4 emergency stimulus bill: S. 4117, providing small businesses with PPP loans under $150k with automatic forgiveness; S. 3620, establishing a housing assistance fund; S.4159; a bill to modernize the E-Sign Act to reflect advancements in technology over the past 20 years and streamline how consumers consent to receiving electronic documents and remove barriers that some face to receiving important documents; approve $1 billion in CDFI fund; include language to better effectuate electronic and remote notarizations. Finally, we are educating Congress on provisions in the HEROES Act we believe to be harmful to financial institutions and our members, including moratoriums on foreclosures, evictions, and collections and provisions dealing with negative credit reporting and adverse information on credit reports and urging Congress to taking our concerns into consideration if they proceed with addressing these issues in a Phase 4 bill.

Lapses by the retail industry/merchants in securing consumer information continue to be extremely problematic and costly to consumers and financial institutions. MCUL is advocating that Congress hold retailers to the same or similar data security standards as the financial service industry has to abide by and require retailers notify credit unions sooner once a breach occurs. Currently, we are not supporting any specific legislation. MCUL supports modernizing the Federal Credit Union Act (FCUA). The financial service industry is rapidly changing. Advancements in technology, including high speed internet connectivity, have significantly change our society and how financial institutions do business. Updating the FCUA has become necessary to ensure federally chartered credit unions have the powers and flexibility to be competitive and members can benefit from new technology. We are currently supporting H.R. 1661, a bill that would provide the NCUA flexibility to increase non-mortgage loan maturity limits for federal credit unions. We are also supporting H.R. 2305 and S.2834, a bill that would exempt business loans to veterans from the member business loan cap. Additionally, we support S. 3233 to allow expulsion for cause of an unruly member; S. 3326, to remove outdated duties for credit union boards and remove the requirement for credit unions to provide NCUA with the names of its loan officers from the FCUA; and the Board Governance Modernization Act, to modify the FCUA requirement that credit union boards meet once a month to not less than six times per year. MCUL is monitoring developments for GSE/housing finance reform and will advocate to make sure any reforms reflect the significant role credit unions play in the secondary mortgage market and we will defend against anything that is potentially harmful to credit unions and our members. MCUL supports congressional efforts, including H.R. 2514, the COUNTER Act, and S.2563, the ILLICIT CASH Act, to reform bank secrecy act/anti-money laundering reforms and provide financial institutions relief from unnecessary, duplicate and burdensome rules. MCUL supported passage of the CARES Act, H.R. 748 and called for the inclusion of several provisions in the bill, including language to: Exempt credit union business loans made during federally declared disasters and emergencies from the Credit Union Member Business Lending Cap; Exempt fully government-guaranteed loans made through programs at the Small Business Administration, Department of Agriculture and other agencies from the Credit Union Member Business Lending Cap; Ensure that any new small business lending programs created through the Small Business Administration or other government agencies include an opportunity for credit unions to participate; and Increase appropriations for the Community Development Financial Institution Fund (CDFIF), the Community Development Revolving Loan Fund (CDRLF), and the Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund.

MCUL supports efforts to curb illegal and harassing robocalls and is monitoring congressional efforts to do so. Credit unions must ensure any legislation to end illegal robocalls takes into consideration the unique interests of our members (each of which is a shareholder of the credit union) and that institutions maintain the ability to contact their members for legitimate reasons, such as when an account is overdrawn. MCUL supported assage of H.R. 3375 and ultimately passage of the Pallone Thune TRACED Act, S. 151. MCUL supports congressional efforts, including H.R. 2514, the COUNTER Act, and S.2563, the ILLICIT CASH Act, to reform bank secrecy act/anti-money laundering reforms and provide financial institutions relief from unnecessary, duplicate and burdensome rules.
