Tell Congress about Community Banking Issues

CCBN News/Resources, Advocacy News,

Capital Summit Kicks Off in D.C.

CCBN along with hundreds of community bankers across the nation are meeting with policymakers in Washington this week, ICBA is calling on community bankers across the nation to send messages to their lawmakers on key advocacy issues regardless of whether they are attending the Capital Summit in person. Top issues include calling for credit union hearings, supporting rural America, reining in regulatory overreach, and opposing credit card routing mandates.

Your letter ensures members of Congress and their staff clearly and uniformly hear our powerful community banking message. It is very helpful to an office to have a primer before a meeting. Thank you for taking the time.
