In this episode of Making Sense of Money, presented by P1FCU, host Tanis sits down with Jordan Beyer, Grassroots Advocacy Manager at the GoWest Credit Union Association, to discuss what advocacy truly entails behind the scenes and why it matters to members. Jordan shares how GoWest helps credit unions in six states (including Idaho!) champion member needs through legislative advocacy, education, and collaboration. From modernizing state laws to ensuring credit unions have a seat at the table during policy changes, Jordan breaks down how these efforts create real impact, like expanding access to services, improving communication tools, and protecting member rights. Whether you're a credit union member or employee, this episode highlights why advocacy isn't just about politics; it's about people. And it starts with understanding what's at stake.
