    Back of the napkin math means the CU tax exemption would increase total tax revenues in 2020 by 0.1%? So completely inconsequential.

      That's flawed logic. It's going to take a lot of pennies to get to real dollars from a revenue perspective. Have to look under every rock. Ten 0.1% rocks gets you 1% more revenue. That's not inconsequential, it would fund a lot of social programs.

      My point is there are other much bigger rocks we should be looking under to help fund social projects. This isn't the battle to fight.

    What if credit unions paid taxes and individuals' taxes declined, even if slightly?
