Williams Casts Vote for Community Banks

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Congressman Roger Williams (R – Austin), who serves as a vice chairman on the House Committee on Financial Services, released the following statement after the House passed S. 2155, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act:

"After years of hard work with my colleagues on the Financial Services Committee, I am proud to have cast my vote in favor of S. 2155. Over half of the provisions in this bill originated in our committee and I am glad to see Congress cutting through the red tape in order to give community banks, credit unions, small businesses and, most importantly, the American consumer, much needed relief. We can and must do more to rein in federal government overreach, and I will continue working with both Chambers to roll back burdensome regulations in order to allow Main Street to breathe again."
