Session Description

Credit union advocates have shown up — at state capitols, in district offices, and through calls to action — but what impact do these efforts really have? What do legislators see, hear, and remember from our outreach? This engaging session brings you behind the scenes with a panel of elected officials who will share how advocacy shapes their decisions, what communication tactics resonate most, and why grassroots involvement is critical. Get candid insights into how lawmakers process your messages — and how to ensure your voice stands out.
