Todd Harper, who was a top aide to credit union supporter Rep. Paul Kanjorski (D-Pa.) has been named director of the NCUA's Office of Public and Congressional Affairs, the agency announced today.
Harper, who worked both for Kanjorski and as staff director for a House subcommittee, has been involved in every major piece of legislation impacting credit unions during his 14-year career on Capitol Hill.
"I am very pleased that Todd is joining our team," NCUA Chairman Debbie Matz said in a statement. "His knowledge, experience and demonstrated capabilities as a legislative practitioner are well established and have placed him in the front-rank of Washington policy professionals. I am confident that Todd Harper will be of immediate benefit to NCUA; he knows and understands credit unions, and he knows and understands the issues that affect them."
