About Credit Union National Association

Championing the credit union movement

On January 1, 2024, the Credit Union National Association and the National Association of Federally-Insured Credit Unions merged to give you a stronger and more responsive voice on the national stage. This merger is a historic opportunity to transform credit union advocacy at the federal and state levels and advance the industry into the future. The new association will bring together the best of both organizations to offer exceptional services to credit unions so they can help Americans achieve and afford their best financial lives. America’s Credit Unions will be fully operational by 2025.  

The CUNA-League system is the most credible trade association in Washington across all industries.

Our power of association

The combined power of a national association, state leagues, member credit unions and more than 140 million consumers form an unparalleled network looking out for credit unions’ best interests.

Together, we work on important initiatives like:

  •  Relentless federal advocacy
  •  A clear, unified voice that’s representative of the entire industry 
  • Strong compliance assistance 
  •  Industry-leading education and cooperative networking opportunities 
  • Member engagement with an increased focus on responsiveness 

The former House Budget Committee chairman is a big reason why credit unions exert such influence on financial regulations.
