The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) today commended the Senate Banking Committee for its passage of the SAFER Banking Act (S. 2860), bipartisan legislation that would establish a safe harbor from federal sanctions for financial institutions that serve cannabis-related businesses in states where cannabis is legal.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency announced the launch of a nationwide cybersecurity public awareness campaign to educate Americans on how to stay safe online.

ICBA and other groups expressed united opposition to a legislative proposal to impose a national cap on the fees and interest charged on consumer loans.
