Credit unions are co-ops that get better outcomes for their communities. Tax policy should continue to reflect this fact. Check out this great column by Jim Nussle and Juan Fernandez laying out the case. All during the Year of the Co-op!

Jimmy Carter, former US president who was committed to human rights, has died. He was 100 years old. Carter set a powerful example for world leaders to make human rights a priority, and he continued to fight for human rights after he left office.
