On behalf of WVBankers Board of Directors and its members, we would like to thank our Immediate Past Chairman F. Michael Nelson for his leadership and fellowship over the past year. His year as Chairman started out so positively with political and regulatory reform and ended with a once in a lifetime global pandemic impacting all of us in so many ways. Yet, his thoughtful leadership and steady hand kept us moving in the right direction through very difficult times. Thank you Mike. Because of your guidance, we will emerge stronger and better prepared to carry on our mission.
Sincerely,
The West Virginia Bankers Association

West Virginia Bankers: Ask The Senate To Modernize Brokered Deposit Rules
It's been 30 years since today's brokered deposit rules were first enacted. Since then, the banking industry has undergone significant technological and other changes, resulting in brokered deposit rules that are out of sync with the modern banking environment.
Ask your senator to modernize the 30-year-old brokered deposit rules. Specifically, replace Section 29 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act so that healthy banks are not penalized for using modern bank funding mechanisms. ACT NOW!

West Virginia Bankers: Urge the Senate to Simplify Forgiveness for PPP Loans $150K and Under
Since April 3, bankers across the country have assisted small businesses in their communities by providing loans through the Small Business Administration's Paycheck Protection Program. To date, small businesses have received over 4.8 million loans through the program. As the Paycheck Protection Program enters the forgiveness phase, the process should be easy, simple and less technical for small business owners who borrowed $150k or less, which account for 86% of all PPP loans.
Click on the link below to contact Senator Manchin and Senator Capito to support legislation to expedite the forgiveness process for most borrowers who received loans through the PPP. ACT NOW!

NEW! Urge the House to Pass Legislation to Forgive PPP Loans of $150,000 and Under
The House recently introduced legislation to simplify the forgiveness process for PPP loans of $150,000 and under by having borrowers sign a simple form saying the funds were used according to the PPP loan requirements. You've already contacted your senators encouraging them to pass similar legislation. Now it's time to ask your representative to quickly pass a bill to make the PPP forgiveness process simple and less technical for small business owners.
Contact your representative and ask him or her to ease the burden on small businesses and pass legislation to forgive PPP loans of $150,000 or less. ACT NOW!
