ICBA today is releasing new polling data showing Americans support the community bank policy priorities laid out in ICBA’s new “Repair, Reform, and Thrive” plan.
Polling Details: The polling of U.S. adults conducted by Morning Consult found:
61% agree that federal agencies should address regulatory restrictions that limit the formation of new community banks.
67% say providing tax relief to lending institutions in rural communities — in line with the ICBA-advocated ACRE Act — would help preserve family farms.
55% agree that Congress should overturn small-business data collection and reporting rules.
62% say credit unions that operate like banks should have to pay taxes like banks.
58% agree policymakers should raise the deposit insurance limit above $250,000.
ICBA’s Plan: The polling aligns with policy proposals laid out in “Repair, Reform, and Thrive: ICBA's Plan for Powering Local Economies,” which offers a regulatory and legislative agenda for new 119th Congress and incoming Trump administration. ICBA shared the agenda in a recent open letter to Congress.
Policy Outlook: “With the polling conducted by Morning Consult showing Americans understand the importance of kickstarting locally based economic growth, ICBA looks forward to working with the 119th Congress and Trump administration to advance much-needed policy reforms,” ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said today in a national news release.
