NAFCU activates CU grassroots to fight interchange amendment to NDAA
NAFCU is calling on credit unions to fight back against efforts to attach legislation sought by big-box retailers – that would expand interchange price controls – to the fiscal year 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The association’s advocacy efforts kept the bill from being attached to the House version of the NDAA.
