Talk to your customers about credit unions

Did you know the average federal income tax paid by an Oklahoma resident was $10,589 last year?

Did you know the TOTAL income taxes paid by credit unions was $0?

As a banker, you probably did, but do your customers know? In a time when the federal deficit is regularly at the forefront of the news, maybe they should know what it’s costing the country (not just banks) when they continue to operate as tax-free entities.

These are the talking points the Oklahoma Bankers Association will try to make to our representatives and senators on Capitol Hill over the next few months, and one way our banks can assist. The OBA will be regularly sharing info on its social media outlets, as well as other strategies, which we hope you – our bankers – will pass along to your customers. Have them visit the https://www.reformcreditunions.com website for more information to share.
