Advocacy Committee

Purpose: The Advocacy Committee leads the external efforts of the organization to influence and impact the legislative process on the State and Federal level. Members are instrumental in developing the Association’s stance on legislative issues and initiatives. Though it is recommended all members of the Association be in touch with their local legislators, members of this committee should be leaders in efforts to contacting and discussing industry issues with State and Federal legislators, their staffs, and our Association executives. The committee also serves as a networking and idea exchange for community bankers on potential or prospective legislation or issues.
