MAA Accepting Nominations for Steering Committee; Deadline COB Today

The MBA Mortgage Action Alliance is accepting nominations for three at-large seats on the 2021-2022 MAA Steering Committee in accordance with the MAA bylaws. The nomination deadline is 5:00 p.m. ET today, Nov. 25.

MAA is governed by a nine-member steering committee, which is responsible for assisting in formulation, implementation and execution of MAA’s grassroots activities supporting MBA’s broader legislative and regulatory agenda.

As a member of the committee, you will complete outreach to your peers to become active in MAA, help identify and execute MAA enrollment campaigns, and promote active participation in calls to action and other advocacy initiatives aimed at strengthening the industry’s voice and lobbying power in Washington, DC, and state capitals across America.
