CULAC
The Credit Union Legislative Action Council (CULAC) is the political action committee (PAC) that supports Congressional elected officials and candidates who are credit union-friendly and supporters of credit unions’ not-for-profit tax status. Individuals who are associated with credit unions that are members of the MD|DC Credit Union Association, and have a signed a Permission Agreement, are eligible to participate in CULAC. All contributions to CULAC are strictly voluntary and are not tax deductible for federal income tax purposes.
Project Zip Code
Project Zip Code is a user friendly, secure computer program that counts your members and matches them by congressional district, state legislative district and county. Your information is completely secure with Project Zip Code. In fact, only the number of credit union members is transmitted to the Project Zip Code national database. Specific member data cannot be viewed by anyone outside your organization. The master census that results from credit unions running PZC helps demonstrate the strength of credit union membership across the nation.
Project Zip Code is compliant with the privacy laws created in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.
