(From CUNA News) – More than 5,000 credit union leaders from across the country will converge to the nation’s capital for the 2020 CUNA Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC). The premier industry event will take place February 23-27 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC and registration is now open.
“Every day, credit unions work tirelessly to provide financial security and support to families and communities across the country,” said CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle. “GAC is an opportunity for credit union advocates to come to Washington and share that important work with lawmakers, engage with other credit union leaders, and grow as a cooperative movement.”
CUNA GAC also features:
- Keynote sessions from leaders in business, media, and politics;
- Breakout sessions on important financial, regulatory and advocacy topics;
- The largest exhibit hall of any credit union event; and
- Networking opportunities with fellow industry leaders.
Hill visits coordinated together with the state credit union leagues are at the heart of CUNA GAC. Credit union representatives from all 50 states visit Capitol Hill to meet with their representatives, start conversations on pivotal legislative and regulatory issues, and remind them of the benefit credit unions have on their constituents’ lives.
