Political Fundraising
With the threat of taxation always looming, it is more important than ever to ensure our lawmakers understand the differences between not-for-profit credit unions and other types of financial institutions. Your association actively seeks to engage members and elected officials in grassroots advocacy by raising and distributing funds through two political action committees, CUPAC and CULAC. Thankfully, these funds have been helping to build a strong credit union political backbone for many years.
CUPAC is the state Political Action Committee (PAC) for Dakota Credit Union Association, registered with the Secretary of State in both South Dakota and North Dakota. CULAC is the federal Legislative Action Council for the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) and is the national PAC that contributes to our federal candidates with heavy input from the Dakota Credit Union Association. Each are run by a board of trustees made up of credit union professionals and volunteers.
Donations to CUPAC/CULAC are used to support credit union friendly candidates in their bids for state and federal office.
