Banks and credit unions back FDIC alignment, push back on mandates for cards and candidate accounts Industry witnesses told the Banking Committee they support aligning state branch approval rules with recent FDIC changes (SB 302) and backing a fraud‑prevention campaign, but they oppose mandates that would force small institutions to offer card‑issuing programs or be ready to host candidate committee accounts (SB 303, HB 5318).

Connecticut's banking and credit union representatives are calling for modernization in branch rules while pushing back against costly product mandates that could burden small institutions.

Senate committee considers targeted excise on alcohol/tobacco retailers to fund community reinvestment (LB 8‑56) LB 8‑56 would authorize a 5% excise tax on gross receipts of gas stations, convenience stores and packaged liquor stores located in HUD qualified census tracts, with at least 70% of revenue required to be reinvested in the same tract for health, housing and prevention programs. Proponents framed the measure as place‑based public‑health reinvestment; opponents warned of regressivity, business flight and implementation complexity.
