ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said ICBA and community bankers this year proved once again to be effective advocates in Washington.
Details: In a message to the nation’s community bankers, Romero Rainey recapped ICBA’s successful year in advocacy, including:
Keeping a Durbin Amendment expansion and other harmful policies out of the end-of-year congressional omnibus.
Influencing the debate over crypto regulation.
Amplifying state community banking associations’ successes in countering the credit union power grab.
Getting out in front of regulators’ climate risk efforts.
More: “In 2022, ICBA and community bankers stood together against a steady stream of efforts to impose harmful policies while working tirelessly to advance initiatives benefiting local communities—proving once again the importance of making our voice heard in the nation’s capital,” Romero Rainey wrote.
