GAC Real-Time Updates: Raising the Roof for CULAC

Posted by on March 6, 2024

While working long days to meet with elected officials and key House and Senate staff this week, a delegation of nearly 500 GAC advocates from the GoWest region also focused on the need to elect and retain credit union champions in Congress. While on site in the Beltway, they raised nearly $26,000 for the Credit Union Legislative Action Council (CULAC), the CU Movement’s federal fundraising tool. Colorado attendees contributed $9,165 alone.

Thanks to all who donated; we know that many of you already have, and you keep giving to this priority! And thank you to our Trustees for leading the charge:

  • Arizona: Jay Curtis
  • Colorado: Arick Williams
  • Idaho: Dan Thurman
  • Oregon: Stacie Wyss-Schoenborn
  • Washington: Mina Worthington
  • Wyoming: Brian Rohrbacher

The 2024 election cycle is underway. While we hope to keep our CU supporters in office, there are also many announcements that some Members of Congress will not be seeking reelection. Your contributions will help elect new champions.
