Increasing Credit Union Lending for Business Growth Act

Sponsored By: Representative Rep. Gonzalez, Vicente [D-TX-34]

Introduced

Summary

Would raise the dollar threshold that federal credit unions use for certain small-business lending from $50,000 to $100,000. The bill would amend 12 U.S.C. 1757a(c)(1)(B)(iii) by replacing $50,000 with $100,000. That change doubles the specified per-loan amount and aims to expand credit availability to small businesses by allowing higher loan amounts from federal credit unions.

Bigger credit union loans for small businesses

If enacted, federal credit unions could make larger business loans to members. The bill would raise the loan cap in current law from $50,000 to $100,000. That could let your business borrow up to $50,000 more per loan from a federal credit union. The bill does not list an effective date or end date in this section. This applies only to loans covered by that part of the credit union law.
