Contact: (202) 225-2071 The North Carolina Credit Union League honored Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (NC-05) this week with their Credit Union Advocate Award for her support of local credit unions and the role they play in communities. The group held an awards event in Foxx’s honor on Wednesday, August 31 in Bermuda Run, NC.
“Credit Unions are a vital resource for providing financial services to communities,” Foxx said. “They give small businesses access to capital—which is the life-blood of local job creation—while ensuring families can obtain credit and competitive savings rates. I’m pleased that the Credit Union League has recognized my strong support for North Carolina’s credit unions. According to the North Carolina Credit Union League, the Credit Union Advocate Award is given to legislators who have demonstrated a clear and consistent understanding of and appreciation for credit unions. It is only awarded to those legislators who publicly and strongly support credit unions and seek credit union perspectives when considering proposed legislation.
