North Carolina: Tell your representatives to protect the Freedom to Invest
Protect the Freedom to Invest in North Carolina.
Special Interests are working to limit specific types of risk financial institutions can consider when making decisions. These types of restrictive policies can have an impact on investment in our communities, can harm North Carolina’s economy, and raise costs for taxpayers.
Tell your legislators to protect the freedom to invest
North Carolina lawmakers are considering passing S. 554 – a bill that will limit the types of risk banks and other financial institutions can consider when making lending decisions to farmers and agriculture producers. This bill puts the government between lending institutions and our North Carolina farmers and agriculture producers, which harms the free market.

Why Does This Matter?
Investors and companies are trained to consider all risks and opportunities when making decisions—it’s their fiduciary duty and it’s good business. The types of restrictions in a new trend of bills seen across the country will keep investors from fulfilling that duty, and North Carolinians will pay the price. Legislation passed in other states is already costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars.
