Expressing concern over a call for a foreclosure moratorium and a state-run bank, the Michigan Credit Union League is jumping into the race for governor with an endorsement for the GOP candidate, Rick Snyder.

The league expressed alarm over Bernero's proposals for a statewide halt to foreclosures which would have "a chilling effect on credit unions" and their ability to lend.
