WASHINGTON — NAFCU has begun to reveal its line up of speakers for Congressional Caucus scheduled for Sept. 9-12.
Two of the featured speakers at Caucus will be CURIA sponsors Congressmen Paul Kanjorski (D-Pa.) and Ed Royce (R-Calif.) who have championed the Credit Union Regulatory Improvements Act (H.R. 1537) since its inception.

House Financial Services Committee Ranking Member Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.) is also slated to speak.
From the regulatory side, NAFCU has confirmed NCUA Chairman JoAnn Johnson, NCUA Vice Chairman Rodney Hood, Federal Housing Finance Board Member Geoff Bacino, and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network Director James Freis.
