banks to honor payroll deposits for
State
workers affected by budget debate
SACRAMENTO - July 15, 2004 - The California Bankers
Association (CBA) today announced that several of its member banks
are providing assistance to their customers who are also State
of California employees affected by the state's budget impasse.
Those Capitol-area banks that will honor the payroll deposits of
state employees, in alphabetical order are: Bank of America, Bank
of the West, River City Bank, Union Bank of California, Washington
Mutual and Wells Fargo. For details about the assistance being provided
by these banks, customers should contact their local branch.
"Many of our Capitol-area banks, who service most of the affected
state employees, believe it is important to recognize the contribution
of these employees by allowing advances on their payroll during
the budget impasse," said Michael K. Jones, interim president
of CBA. "CBA supports their decision to do this and looks forward
to the resolution of the state's budget situation."
