ABA, associations thank Foster, De La Cruz for supporting economic growth

Rep. Monica De La Cruz (R-Texas) greets a constituent.

The American Bankers Association and the Illinois Bankers Association released a new ad thanking Rep. Bill Foster (D-Ill.) for supporting policies that create jobs and strengthen the economy, and urging him to continue those efforts.

In addition, ABA and the Texas Bankers Association released a new ad highlighting Rep. Monica De La Cruz’s (R-Texas) support of policies that strengthen small businesses and drive economic growth and calling on her to continue those efforts.

Foster

“Representative Bill Foster has worked tirelessly in support of bipartisan policies that expand access to credit for consumers and drive economic growth in Illinois and across the country,” said ABA President and CEO Rob Nichols. “His efforts are making a real difference, and we encourage him to keep up the fight.”

“Representative Foster has been a key supporter of legislation that strengthens our economy and expands opportunity for Illinois workers and small businesses,” said Illinois Bankers Association President and CEO David Boulay. “We appreciate his hard work and call on him to keep advocating for common-sense solutions that will create jobs and help Main Street thrive.”

De La Cruz

“As a small business owner herself, Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz recognizes the essential role that small businesses play in powering economic growth and creating jobs,” said ABA President and CEO Rob Nichols. “She has championed policies that help banks provide more capital to support business investment and job creation, and we urge her to keep up the good work.”

“Congresswoman De La Cruz has fought hard to ensure that small businesses can continue to thrive in south Texas and across the country,” said Texas Bankers Association President and CEO Chris Furlow. “We encourage her to continue her efforts to lower taxes and expand access to capital so that small business owners can have an even greater impact on the communities they serve.”
