The Summit presents a great opportunity for Idaho bankers to meet with our Congressional Delegation and representatives from the regulatory agencies to ensure they understand the principles that guide our industry, and incorporate them into policy. Idaho Bankers play a hugely important role in that Senator Crapo is the Senate Banking Chairman.
