Advocacy Gives CUs, Members a United Voice

Robert D. Ramirez, Vantage West’s CEO, is a proponent maintaining relationships with local, state, and federal legislators and regulators. He considers it vital to promote the credit union agenda. “A mutual understanding of our respective responsibilities makes it easier to advocate for the credit union movement,” says Ramirez. His advocacy efforts landed him a spot on the transition team for Rep. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.).
