Since main street credit unions have been stifled by the last eight years of costly and complex hyper-regulation, and additionally they have been super-frustrated by the unfortunate resulting reduction in their ability to lend and invest in their communities’ economic development; what will your administration do in its first 100 days to significantly reverse this horrendous threat to America’s moderate-income and middle-income citizens’ long-term fiscal sustainability and future prosperity?

If the CFPB is meant to hold large banks more accountable why do they think big banks are getting bigger and stronger while small community banks and credit unions are disappearing at record rates? What do they plan to do to preserve small financial institutions as a choice for consumers?

Melia Keller

Vice President Marketing, F&A Federal Credit Union

Los Angeles

With the recent Wells Fargo scandal, I've got to ask, what are you going to do to make sure big banks are not taking advantage of members? Along with that, how are you going to ensure that smaller financial institutions can afford the cost of compliance? Most of the costs of compliance do not vary by size, and therefore proportionately are a much greater burden for smaller as opposed to larger institutions.

Vibrant Credit Union

Moline, Ill.The ever rising cost of college is causing more and more people to apply for high risk student loan debt. Student loan debt has grown to more than $1.3 trillion and recent data from the National Student Loan Data System shows that 14.38% of student loans are more than 31 days past due. As president, what would you do to address the increasing costs of college and the ever growing national student loan debt?

Technology has become both the consumer’s best friend and worst enemy, as evidenced by cybersecurity concerns. What will your administration do to better protect consumer data and create stronger, more credible national standards that apply to merchants as well as financial institutions such as credit unions and banks?

And, what will your administration do to promote more local, community-based delivery of consumer-friendly financial services such as those provided by credit unions?
