KEY CONTACTS can provide vital and timely contact with a specific elected official, state or national, or with those who serve in staff or congressional positions of influence. For example, if a Congressional Representative, regarding oversight of the credit union field of membership, held a hearing and it was important to immediately get the credit union message out to members of the Subcommittee, a full-scale grassroots effort is not needed. Using KEY CONTACTS, a few well-placed phone calls are made saving credit union resources for a more needed time.

If you know of anyone, whether they are a credit union member, employee, board member or family member who has an established relationship with an elected official, please let them know that the credit union movement needs them.
