Rep. French Hill, R-Ark., was elected Thursday as House Financial Service Committee chair for the 119th Congress. Hill has served in Congress since 2015, and chaired the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Digital Asserts, Financial Technology, and Inclusion in this Congress.

“America’s Credit Unions congratulates Congressman French Hill for securing the chairman’s gavel for the Financial Services Committee in the 119th Congress,” said America’s Credit Unions President/CEO Jim Nussle. “As a friend of the credit union movement, we couldn’t be more thrilled to have Congressman Hill advancing the industry’s priorities with the important work this committee takes on.”

Hill spoke at the 2025 Governmental Affairs Conference in opposition to the Big Bix Bailout bill, and released a set of regulatory relief principles to support community-based financial institutions last month.
