The credit union advocacy goal – to revolutionize the operating environment for credit unions through the removal of regulatory burdens and the expansion of powers and opportunities – is intentional. Those words are at the center of CUNA's strategic plan, and, together with our league partners and member credit unions, we execute a strategy to achieve that goal.

These efforts have produced many victories over the last several years.
