Take a Hike to D.C.: strengthen credit union advocacy and impact

Published by: Sean Brown

June 25, 2024 | Government Affairs

One collective voice matters when the League navigates uncertain times to advocate for over 3.2 million Ohio credit union members. Adding a Presidential election to an already tumultuous Congress has pushed an ever-evolving legislative and regulatory climate to an extreme. It has never been more important to ensure federal decision-makers remain focused on policies that empower the cooperative model.

Join your Ohio peers and the League Sept. 10-12 for the 2024 Hike the Hill. This hike to Washington, D.C. is your opportunity to personally meet with both federal regulators and members of Congress on behalf of your credit union, its members, and the movement to demonstrate how their decisions impact your ability to serve your members.

Hike the Hill is your opportunity to cultivate relationships that ensure true champions of the movement. Stepping away from the day-to-day needs of your credit union is hard, so the League is organizing a packed agenda to make sure your visit to D.C. is worth every minute.

We welcome first-time attendees and veterans and look forward to collaborating with you to drive the Ohio Credit Union Movement forward in a highly impactful way. Registration is complimentary. Sign up soon and secure your room at The Thompson Hotel at a reduced rate before Aug. 15.
