ICBA sent a letter to members of the Senate Banking Committee in support of the Tailored Regulatory Updates for Supervisory Testing (TRUST) Act (S. 3830), which would create regulatory relief for numerous community banks. The TRUST Act would raise the consolidated asset threshold from $3 billion to $6 billion for banks to qualify for an 18-month examination cycle. ICBA said that a higher threshold for well capitalized and well managed banks that pose no systemic risk is safe and sensible reform that would allow more community banks to direct more resources toward serving their customers and communities.
ICBA sent a letter to members of Congress urging them to pass an additional farm economic assistance package. ICBA said it appreciates the administration’s recently announced $12 billion Farmer Bridge Assistance package for row and specialty crops, but this level of assistance is simply not sufficient given that production costs are substantially above farmers’ expected revenues. ICBA also urged lawmakers to include an increase in USDA guaranteed farm loan limits to $3.5 million for farm real estate and $3 million for operating loans.
