CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle issued a statement congratulating Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on his election as the 55th Speaker of the House. McCarthy, who has served in Congress since 2007, has long been a strong supporter of credit unions.

“We congratulate Speaker McCarthy on his election and look forward to working closely with him and other Congressional leaders to advance credit union priorities in this Congress,” Nussle said. “Speaker McCarthy is a longtime supporter of reducing the regulatory burden on credit unions so they can dedicate more time and resources to serve their members and communities.”
