This month’s edition of the Economic Update comes straight from the 2025 Governmental Affairs Conference stage. America’s Credit Unions’ Mike Schenk and Curt Long provide an "Economist’s Update” and break down the current landscape surrounding the credit union federal tax status fight. 

During the session, Schenk breaks down myths about credit unions and presents data to support the credit union difference. Long discusses data that reveals how credit unions are staying true to their mission and the current financial services landscape, including data on credit union-bank mergers.
