IN HONOR OF ALIGN CREDIT UNION OPENING THEIR FIRST NEW HAMPSHIRE
LOCATION
______
HON. CHRIS PAPPAS
of new hampshire
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, May 11, 2021
Mr. PAPPAS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Align Credit Union on opening their new location in Seabrook, their first in New Hampshire.
Every day brings unique challenges to our entrepreneurs here in the Granite State--even more so during these unprecedented times--but as someone who has owned and operated a family restaurant, I know that it's institutions like Align Credit Union that help drive our economy and form the fabric of our communities. Since its founding in 1922, Align has built strong bonds within New England communities, and maintained its focus on members, regardless of circumstance.
Community financial institutions like Align have long served an essential purpose in expanding financial literacy and strengthening local economies. Now, their work is more important than ever, as Americans turn to credit unions to disburse essential relief funds and rely on their support of Main Street businesses. Align's cooperative model and ``people helping people'' approach has been essential to its members during this crisis. We welcome Align to the Seacoast of New Hampshire.
Once again, I want to congratulate Align Credit Union on this great achievement, and them for all those who have been involved in making this possible.
