Our special events team works tirelessly to provide your credit union staff opportunities to interact with lawmakers and regulators, both in events throughout Michigan and in Washington, D.C. These events give our industry leaders access to decision makers, helping the league make its case for the continued prosperity of credit unions and your members.

The following tried and true events give you access to state and federal lawmakers in a variety of venues. We would love nothing more than to stand side-by-side with leaders from every Michigan credit union to represent the best interests of our industry. The Michele Myrick Fund Scholarship can assist those in need with the cost of attending the CUNA GAC and the Hike the Hill grassroots lobbying trips to Washington, D.C.
