What's happening
Your credit union benefits may be at risk
Congress is considering adding more taxes for credit unions, which may directly impact members like you. Dupaco and all credit unions need your help to protect our current tax status. This status allows us to offer lower loan rates, fewer fees and higher savings rates.
How you can help
Your voice matters!
Contact your members of Congress and ask them to support credit unions by preserving our current tax status. Outreach is easy. Use these resources to quickly find your Senator and Representative and send a message. (Hint: the message is pre-filled so it’s easy!)
