The MBA holds two legislative events, the Legislative Reception and the Washington Visit, where members can connect with their federal and state legislators. Changes at the national and state level have a tremendous impact on our customers, small businesses, communities, and employees. MBA's events are important opportunities to talk with policymakers and help them understand the effect of legislation on the Maryland banking industry.
Day in Annapolis
MBA's Day in Annapolis program is a part of MBA's ongoing efforts to involve bankers in the legislative process. This event provides financial institution executives, officers and employees with a unique opportunity to see the Maryland General Assembly in action and act upon legislation that affects our industry.
Legislative Reception
In Annapolis, MBA's Advocacy Team has developed productive working relationships with members of the General Assembly to successfully manage issues during the Annual Legislative Reception.
Washington Visit
To help federal lawmakers and regulators understand the effect of legislation on the financial industry in Maryland, the MBA holds its annual Washington Visit in Washington, D.C., where bankers across the state share their views and concerns with key policymakers in the federal government.
Please contact MBA's Senior Policy & Political Strategist, Evan Richards (443-983-1331) for any questions on these legislative events.
