Connect for the Cause

Congress is discussing potential tax policy changes that could impact credit unions. Connect for the Cause and help ensure that lawmakers understand how credit unions serve their members and communities.

Help to Protect Your Credit Union!

Bay Federal is different than a bank—as a not-for-profit, member-owned credit union, we reinvest our earnings to directly benefit you. 

Now, Congress is looking at how to fund priorities by examining credit unions' tax-free status. Taking away the tax exemption would greatly reduce the services and programs that directly support our members and keep our communities strong. That’s why we need your help to tell Congress: Don’t Tax My Credit Union.

How to Take Action (It Only Takes a Minute)

  • Enter your name, email, and address in the form.

  • Review the message (pre-filled for you) and submit.

We believe credit union members should have a voice in this conversation. Take a moment to tell Congress why credit unions matter!
