UT Martin students are headed to the 11th national 2025 CSBS Community Bank Case Study Competition. The team partnered with local community banks to explore the impact of interest rates and inflation on the business of banking. 🔗: news.utm.edu/2025/06/12/utm…

If you've applied for a mortgage in recent years, you likely remember the barrage of unsolicited phone calls and messages from random lendersand marketers across the country. My bill, which is one step closer to becoming law, would put a stop to that. I want to thank my colleagues on the @FinancialCmte for their unanimous support. I also want to thank bill co-lead @RepRitchie and the more than 80 cosponsors from both sides of the aisle.

Great to speak at BankTennessee today in Shelby County alongside @TNDeptFI @ComGregGonzales. Financial institutions play a crucial role in our local economy, and I am working to ensure they have the support they need from Washington. Thank you to BankTennessee Chairman Joel Porter and President & CEO Wright Cox for having me. I enjoyed catching up with @TNBankers President & CEO @colinbarrett.










@JaredStillman He’s given us the best playoff results in team history other than the peak McNair/George years. We had been to the playoffs 1 out of 7 years w Wiz/Mularkey/Munch and now Coach Vrabel has been there 3 out of 6. He’s a solid coach that can win big games.



Thank you to the Tennessee Bankers Association #TBAannualmeeting for hosting Gina and I at their annual convention. Colin Barrett and his team do a wonderful job promoting community banking. @colinbarrett @ICBA





Article certainly slanted on what's holding Credit Unions back from continuing to buy banks. What's missing from the article however, is that Congress never intended for #TaxAvoidance credit unions to be out acquiring tax paying #communitybanks in communities that have no relation to a common bond or out of state transactions. #WakeUp @ICBA "Today's behemoth, growth-oriented credit unions are leveraging their tax subsidy to purchase tax-paying community banks. This trend is reducing consumer choice and eroding the tax base of states, localities and the federal government" @romerorainey americanbanker.com/creditunions/n…
