Nussle congratulates Herrera on NCUA nomination
WASHINGTON, DC (July 14, 2016) — President Barack Obama announced today the nomination of John Herrera to the open seat on the NCUA board. CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle congratulated Herrera on the nomination.
“On behalf of the CUNA/League system, I extend my sincere congratulations to John Herrera, who President Barack Obama has named the newest member of the National Credit Union Administration board,” Nussle said. “Few credit union leaders have worked harder or more passionately to include marginalized and underserved communities into traditional financial services than John, who founded Latino Community CU and has headed Self-Help’s Latino and Hispanic affairs efforts for 17 years. Credit unions will benefit from having someone with direct credit union experience on the board.”
Herrera is the senior vice president for Latino and Hispanic affairs at Self-Help CU of Durham, N.C., and the co-founder and board chair of Latino Community CU.
