                          HON. EDWARD R. ROYCE

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, April 26, 2007

  Mr. ROYCE. Madam Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I rise today 
to recognize the 40th Anniversary of the National Association of 
Federal Credit Unions (NAFCU). Founded in my home state of California 
on

[[Page 10603]]

April 26, 1967, NAFCU's current member credit unions stretch from 
coast-to-coast and are more than 1,000 in number. These credit unions 
in turn represent more than 30 million individual credit union members.
  From 1967 until today, NAFCU has been a strong voice in Washington on 
behalf of Federal credit unions. The NAFCU members in my district tell 
me that this association does an excellent job providing them with 
representation, information, education, and assistance to meet the 
challenges that cooperative financial institutions face in today's 
economic environment.
  It is with this in mind, I rise today to congratulate the National 
Association of Federal Credit Unions on their 40th Anniversary. I have 
worked with NAFCU on issues that are important to the credit unions in 
my congressional district, and I look forward to doing so in the 
future. Congratulations NAFCU on your 40th Anniversary.
