CUNA is pulling out all the stops by scheduling June 8-9 Washington fly-in, call-in conferences, blanket e-mails, grassroots visits and more in its no-holds-barred campaign to block interchange language from being included in the final financial regulatory bill now slated to go before House-Senate conferees.
