CDFIs have had strong bipartisan support at the federal level and I urge Congress to continue to support this important economic driver.

CDFIs have had strong bipartisan support at the federal level and I urge Congress to continue to support this important economic driver.
CDFIs, as mission-driven financial institutions are at the forefront in providing access to capital to underserved borrowers.
CDFIs provide a critical service to low-income entrepreneurs who are generally excluded from traditional financing to receive business training services and access to affordable capital to help them start their own microenterprises and thus improve their family’s and community’s economic stability.
We strongly support continued investment in CDFIs because they empower local economies, create pathways to homeownership and entrepreneurship, and help communities thrive. By ensuring the sustainability and growth of CDFIs, we can continue our mission to help members bank with dignity and build a stronger financial future for all.
