ADVOCACY | WBA ADVOCACY EVENTS

This year is going to be the most important for banking since the 1930s, and bankers must be ready to get involved. We encourage you to become more directly involved in our 2009 legislative efforts. Mark your calendar and plan to attend one or all of these critical events.

Washington DC Visit
September 13-15, 2010
Join with bankers from around the Pacific Northwest on this annual trip to our nation’s capital. The 2010 WBA Washington DC Visit, again held in conjunction with the Oregon Bankers Association, is open to any and all Washington bankers. Talk to your colleagues and encourage them to join you in this once-a-year opportunity to make your voices heard in personal meetings with your regulators and your lawmakers and their congressional staffs. There’s no more important time to be in our nation’s capital than now.
