CUNA Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC), the credit union industry’s premier advocacy event returns to Washington, D.C., February 27 to March 3, 2022.
Each year thousands of leaders from across the country come together to rally around a united cause — to tell legislators how their policies affect credit unions and their more than 120 million members. The conference will also feature a wide range of informational breakout sessions, training, and resources designed to help credit unions advance their communities and improve financial well-being for all. Registration information is available at cuna.org/gac. Room block information, Hill visit and Minnesota-specific events schedules are available by logging in. |
