Credit Union Governance Modernization Act of 2020

This bill revises the procedure for expelling members from a federal credit union. Specifically, a member may be expelled for cause pursuant to a policy adopted by a majority vote of a quorum of the directors of a credit union. Currently, a member may be expelled by a two-thirds vote of the credit union membership present at a special meeting.

The expelled member may request reinstatement by the credit union board.

Member conduct that may be cause for expulsion includes

  • a loss to the credit union,
  • a violation of the credit union membership agreement,
  • a disruption to the operations of a credit union,
  • fraud or attempted fraud, and
  • other illegal or inappropriate behavior.
