A GAC credit union walks the hill:
I was only at GAC for 48 hours and spent most of time with current vendors and team. Record numbers of people so the economy seems fine even with a lot of uncertainty in the air.
Senator Angus King talked a lot about the constitution and how Trump is concentrating that power in him like a King or Dictator. Our fore- fathers didn’t want one person to hold all the cards so to speak. Lol
Gonna be a wild ride esp with the upcoming potential for a govt shutdown. That will move the stock market. Our legislators did not paint a rosy picture at all for what the rest of the year looks like and that includes Susan Collins (Senator).
P:lease send impressions of your GAC hill visits for a perspective on Congress. I will share with readers.
I recapped my meetings on the Hill with Reps Scott, Vindman, Beyer as well as Senators Kaine and Warner.
the TLDR; is that I found most of them to be friends of credit unions but concerned (rightly so) about the current climate at the other end of Pennsylvania Ave. With Congressman Scott being the most “vocal”.
