​WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Defense Credit Union (DCUC) is proud to announce the formation of its Defending Credit Unions Political Action Committee, (DCU PAC), and National Advocacy Fund, (DCU NAF).

“The decision to form the DCU PAC and National Advocacy Fund is an important part of DCUC’s overall strategic plan to increase both member value and DCUC’s success when championing the voice of our member credit unions’ serving military and veteran communities,” said Anthony Hernandez, DCUC President/CEO. “The DCU PAC and National Advocacy Fund will not only strengthen our representation of the defense credit union movement but also enhance DCUC’s advocacy success while furthering credit unions’ interests on a broader political stage.”
 
DCUC, the leading voice in the credit union industry on all military and veteran matters, understands the importance of engaging with top decision-makers and policy leaders at the federal and national levels. By increasing its presence within the political landscape, the DCU PAC and National Advocacy Fund will ensure credit unions’ interests and concerns are heard during all legislative and regulatory processes directly impacting credit unions and their members.
