CUNA's PAC Strong, Bankers' PAC Stronger

CUNA said its political action committee raised $103,000 last month but only spent $58,000, helping it rebuild its campaign warchest to $346,000. CUNA's cash on hand, one of its highest figures ever, is still less than half the $810,000 warchest held by the American Bankers Association, the most powerful bank PAC. The biggest contributions last month went to: Reps. Adam Smith, (D-WA), $2,500; Hilda Solis (D-CA), $2,500; Ken Calvert (R-CA), $2,000, and Scott Garrett (R-NJ), $1,500.
