The Washington political newspaper The Hill will include member business lending as a topic of discussion during a public event Wednesday that will focus on small business access to capital.

The paper's Issue Forum event will begin at 1:30 p.m. in the Dirksen Senate Office Building and will be broadcast live on the outlet's website.

The forum will include members of congress advocating on behalf of S. 2231, legislation that would increase the member business lending cap from 12.25% of assets to 27.5%. Speakers will include bill sponsors Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) and Rep. Ed Royce (R-Calif.), as well as CUNA President/CEO Bill Cheney and other industry representatives. A spokeswoman for The Hill said CUNA is a sponsor of the event.
