Teachers and the Durbin Interchange Amendment

posted by Adam Levitin

The National Education Association, the largest teachers' union, has come out in opposition to the Durbin Interchange Amendment.

It's unusual to see labor siding with financial institutions, but the lines are often blurrier than one might recognize. There are no less than 151 credit unions with "teacher" in their name (see it for yourself here). In addition, some of the myriad municipal and county employee credit unions are in part teachers' credit unions. I am left wondering if this is the NEA representing teachers or representing teachers' credit unions.

Bankr-L

  • As a public service, the University of Illinois College of Law operates Bankr-L, an e-mail list on which bankruptcy professionals can exchange information. Bankr-L is administered by one of the Credit Slips bloggers, Professor Robert M. Lawless of the University of Illinois. Although Bankr-L is a free service, membership is limited only to persons with a professional connection to the bankruptcy field (e.g., lawyer, accountant, academic, judge). To request a subscription on Bankr-L, click here to visit the page for the list and then click on the link for "Subscribe." After completing the information there, please also send an e-mail to Professor Lawless (rlawless@illinois.edu) with a short description of your professional connection to bankruptcy. A link to a URL with a professional bio or other identifying information would be great.
