Government Relations Overview
Creating connections and building relationships is vital for effective public policy making. Our members’ personal relationships with their local, state and federal representatives are crucial to creating a solid foundation. MBA works hard at being a catalyst for developing and maintaining relationships between our members and policy makers and an advocate on our members’ behalf.
With the help and support of each of our members, we have been able to bring bankers together from every part of the state to deliver the banking industry’s message to key public policy leaders. The active support of members strengthens our advocacy efforts on banking issues in both Saint Paul and Washington, DC.
Each year the MBA hosts the Bank Day at the Capitol, the Washington, D.C. trip, and organizes countless grassroots meetings for public policy makers all around Minnesota. These events provide an excellent opportunity for members of the banking community to show their support for bank industry issues.
