before Senate banking
committee
On June 8, ICBA chairman
Scott Heitkamp
testifi ed before the U.S.
Senate Committee on
Banking, Housing, & Urban
Affairs about local fi nancial
institutions' role in fostering economic growth.

and CEO of ValueBank Texas in Corpus

provisions from ICBA's Plan for Prosperity regulatory
relief platform to unleash the economic
power of community banks.

and complexity.
It was Heitkamp's second testimony on
behalf of ICBA this year: In March, he spoke
to the U.S. House of Representatives Financial
Services Committee about the state of bank
lending in the United States.
