Georgia Delegation - Impactful Conversations at ICBA Capital Summit

CBA Today eNewsletter,
CBA staff, member banks, and several vendor partners teamed up to join ICBA’s Capital Summit in Washington, DC last week to advocate for community bankers across the nation.  Top issues discussed include calling for credit union hearings, supporting rural America, reigning in regulatory overreach, and opposing credit card routing mandates.  The complete lobby card on priority issues is available on the ICBA website.  Georgia bankers visited with the following members of Congress (or their staff) in addition to meeting with Senator Jon Ossoff and staff from Senator Raphael Warnock’s office:

  • Rep. Rick Allen
  • Rep. Mike Collins
  • Rep. Barry Loudermilk
  • Rep. Andrew Clyde
  • Rep. Austin Scott
  • Rep. Sanford Bishop
  • Rep. Drew Ferguson
  • Rep. Nikema Williams

In addition to lobbying on the Hill, bankers heard featured remarks from Dave Fishwick, whose story inspired the Netflix hit “Bank of Dave”; House Financial Services Vice Chairman French Hill (R-Ark); FDIC Chairman Martin Gruenberg; and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director Rohit Chopra.
