Not good news for credit unions in Wisconsin.....

[a kennedy]

The Wisconsin Credit Union League did not get what it wanted from Gov. Scott Walker when he signed the budget bill Sunday: a veto.
Despite the league's pleas, Walker left intact in the bill language that streamlines the conversion of credit unions to banks in a process called direct conversion.
The credit union league had said the legislation too easily allows the conversion of member-owned credit unions to shareholder-owned banks. The league says the legislation is unnecessary and simply a Wisconsin Bankers Association attempt to kill credit unions.
The WBA aknowledges it has wanted the legislation for years but noted it was first put in a budget bill by a Democratically-controlled Assembly and Senate, then vetoed by former Gov. Jim Doyle.

over any religion or diety ever dreamt of by humankind.
