Washington, DC
Credit Union National Association (CUNA) President/CEO Jim Nussle issued the following statement after the White House confirmed that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) reporting proposal has been dropped from the latest reconciliation framework:
“We’re extremely pleased to see the White House has heard the hundreds of thousands of credit union advocates who expressed strong opposition to this anti-consumer proposal,” said CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle.
“There is still a chance it could be inserted into the legislation as it moves forward, but at the moment we’re confident that bold, fierce 360-degree advocacy from CUNA, Leagues, credit unions, and their members has kept this proposal out of the initial framework.”
