Cheers to our Credit Union on its 85th! Proud to be a Member! Being part the USSFCU has special meaning for me because the first Federally-chartered credit union in the United States was in my hometown: Texarkana, Texas (Morris Sheppherd FCU, in 1934).

I worked in the Senate for 23 years and it was so convenient to dash down to the Credit Union. Following that, I went to the State Department to work for a senior official. My contact from the Credit Union (Dana) was extraordinarily helpful in all things money-related for my "Principal" and for me. I couldn't have managed nearly as well as I did wi...

Thanks to the USSFCU I was able to receive a car loan after years of bad credit. This is a wonderful institution.

I had just graduated from college mid-year and moved to DC from the Midwest in January 1982. One of the first things I was told to do after starting work in the Senate was to open an account at the credit union. I did, and despite the fact that my boss lost in 1984, I have kept my account. The credit union helped me buy my first car. Lots of great ...

Congratulations on 85 years of service to the Congressional community!

The USSFCU has always been there for me. The staff has shown nothing but professionalism.

Happy 85th. I joined at age 16 in 1979 when I started what turned out to be a full career with the Senate. Things certainly have changed as USSEFCU grew and dropped the "E".

Congratulations on 85 years. Opening a USSFCU account was one of the very first things I did when I started working on Capitol Hill 20 years ago and I?ve never looked back. It?s my primary bank account to this day. Best wishes for the next 85 years.

A colleague told me she was getting a higher than average interest rate on her savings. I said, "That's the bank for me!"

I've enjoyed banking with USSFCU over the years! It was helpful for managing my money for everything from grad school to my first home to my kids!

When I became part of the Senate staff it was clear many new doors would open. One, to ussfcu, has remained so for many (about 50 or more) years, helping us through small and larger problems, We have used, enjoyed and appreciated their services.

I've been a member since I first moved to the area and wouldn't change a thing!

Congrats! USSFCU has been a reliable financial partner for my family saving me on fees and with low car and personal loan rates. On to the next 85 years!

I started in the Senate in 1977. I was in need of a car and had just a few hundred dollars to my name since coming from Minnesota. My boss told me about the Credit Union and walked me over to the Russell building and introduced me to Virginia P. where I joined and she gave me a loan for 1600.00 to buy a car that afternoon.

Happy Anniversary to our wonderful family! Wishing you many more years of accomplishments!

It's hard to believe how much we've been through since we got together in 1972- two children with accounts, cars, home improvements. I don't know what I would have done without you.

I have had nothing but positive service from USSFCU and will continue ...

I was a senate page and messenger for the sergeant of arms when I was 15. 43 years later I'm still a member. I could find no better place to bank despite overseas military serves. Simper Fi! Works here also.

I joined USSFCU in 1993. I had just started a job as Executive Assistant to a U.S. Senator and being a Black Woman, I felt intimidated and not always accepted in the Senate environment.

Happy 85th Anniversary! Thank you for providing such great service to all of us who have worked for the U.S. Senate. Having a credit union devoted to our financial care is appreciated. Here's to 85 additional years!!

When I joined in 1992, I was young and didn't have much financial wherewithal. Over the years, when I've needed a loan, you've helped me out. When I had extra money not doing anything in a savings account, a representative reached out to me to open a money market account. When I bought my first car, you gave me that loan. You've helped me on my fin...
