When CBA was formed in 1969, the primary goal was to advocate on behalf of Georgia’s community banking industry, and that has remained a top priority to this day.  The March/April issue of Georgia Communities First magazine focuses on CBA’s legislative efforts.
 
In addition to meeting CBA’s Advocacy Team, this issue includes advocacy insights from CBA Chair David Lance, Greater Community Bank, an interview with Senator Matt Brass, Chairman of Senate Banking & Financial Institutions Committee, Tyler Eck’s reporting from the Gold Dome and much more.  Michael Huff, Vice President and Director of Government and Industry Relations, FHLB Atlanta, provided an update on legislative issues on the federal level.
