The Wisconsin Credit Union League recently opened the Credit Union House, a 2,500-square foot-office and meeting facility at 1 E. Main St. in Madison.
The office, located on the Capitol Square, will give the league’s 250 members a place to host meetings with legislators and other state officials, said Chad Helminak, a league spokesman.
"We’ve emphasized advocacy over the last few years, and we want to have space available to those who need it,” he said.
The office will house about seven employees of the Wisconsin Credit Union League. The league’s headquarters will remain in Pewaukee.
"Credit Union House is a place where credit union people come to cultivate their ongoing partnership with state agencies and public officials, celebrate their role in strengthening Wisconsin’s economy, and tout their success in returning millions of dollars to their member-owners each year," said Brett Thompson, president and chief executive officer of the league. "Credit Union House is here to help lawmakers and public officials recognize the role credit unions will continue to play in helping state residents and businesses manage their finances despite economic challenges."
