From September to November, 250 bankers and legislators joined us for our series of State Legislative Meetings. With the 2025 General Assembly Session rapidly approaching, this was an important opportunity to engage state policymakers on key banking issues.

Meetings took place in Roanoke, Virginia Beach, Harrisonburg, Richmond, McLean, and Abingdon.

Thank you to all of the bankers who participated in these events. A special thank you to the following bankers who served as emcees for this year’s meetings:

• Lyn Hayth, Bank of Botetourt
• Victor Branch, Bank of America
• Trent Dudley, Southern Bank and Trust Company
• Jordan Dean, Pendleton Community Bank
• Steve DeLuca, Capital One
