Proactively Supporting Members During a Government Shutdown 

We’ve been closely monitoring recent developments and media coverage surrounding the potential government shutdown, which has created some concern among federal employees, contractors, and their families—many of whom are credit union members. This uncertainty can understandably lead to financial stress for those directly and indirectly impacted. 

As credit unions, we have a unique opportunity to provide reassurance, support, and clarity to our members during times like these. It’s important to remind members why their choice to bank with a credit union is a smart and secure one, especially during periods of economic disruption.


Resources For You

We’ve updated our messaging resources to help you communicate effectively with your members during this period. These resources include talking points, FAQs, and member communication templates that address common concerns about the shutdown. Please use these tools to educate and support your members proactively. 

As the situation evolves, we will continue to monitor developments and provide additional guidance. Thank you for your continued commitment to serving your members with compassion and care.
