BankIn MN PAC

Supporting sound policy. Strengthening the future of community banking.

Strong advocacy depends on strong support. The BankIn MN PAC gives community bankers, bank directors, and employees of Associate Member organizations an opportunity to strengthen the collective voice of community banking at the State Capitol.

As the only state political action committee solely dedicated to advocating for Minnesota's community banks, the BankIn MN PAC helps ensure policymakers understand how their decisions affect local banks and the families, businesses, farms, and communities they serve.
