Veterans Member Business Loan Act

United States119th CongressS-110Senate
Updated: Jan 16, 2025

Summary

This bill proposes to amend the Federal Credit Union Act by excluding extensions of credit made to veterans from the existing definition of a "member business loan." The primary goal of this legislative change is to alleviate certain regulatory constraints that credit unions face when providing financial assistance for business purposes to veterans. By reclassifying these loans, the bill aims to make it easier for credit unions to offer business credit to veterans, potentially increasing access to capital for veteran-owned businesses. The term "veteran" will be defined according to section 101 of title 38, United States Code, ensuring a consistent application of the provision. These amendments are slated to become effective 180 days following the Act's enactment.
