Who takes care of consumers? Only CUs: Free Press

DETROIT (7/21/09)--Credit unions are the only lenders taking care of their consumers, noted a Saturday Detroit Free Press article. The newspaper also prominently mentioned the Michigan Credit Union League and its Invest in America program in contrast to the tightened access to credit consumers face at banks and other lenders.

Credit unions financed 170,000 loans to Chrysler and General Motors (GM) customers through the Invest in America program in the first half of this year. The program offers credit union members discounts and rebates when they purchase Chrysler or GM vehicles, the Free Press said.
