💜 Today is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Financial exploitation and fraud continue to target older adults at an alarming rate, making education and vigilance more important than ever.

Credit unions play an important role in helping members recognize scams, protect their financial information, and safeguard their futures. Together, we can help prevent elder financial abuse and support the well-being of older adults in our communities.

Even as our League remains focused on the Elevate conference this week, we don't want to miss an important opportunity to share an op-ed written by League President Elise Baldacci.

In her commentary, Elise outlines why Maine families, small businesses, and credit unions cannot afford the risks posed by the Credit Card Competition Act.

"Before making major changes, policymakers should be confident that those changes will deliver the benefits being promised and fully examine the potential tradeoffs."
