Utah bankers gathered at the State Capitol on Feb. 20 for this year’s Banker Day at the Legislature, bringing together more than 60 industry leaders from across the state to engage directly in the 2026 General Session.
The program featured remarks from State Senator Dan McCay, who provided insight into key issues shaping Utah’s economic and policy landscape, particularly regarding tax revenue.
UBA President Howard Headlee also provided an update on other bills relevant to financial institutions this session, including consumer amendments, housing investment and trusts.
Following the program, bankers spent the remainder of the morning attending committee meetings, observing floor debate, and connecting with legislators to share the banking industry’s perspective on issues impacting Utah communities.
Banker Day remains one of the most meaningful advocacy opportunities of the year, strengthening relationships at the Capitol and ensuring lawmakers understand the vital role banks play in supporting economic growth across our state. Thank you to all who attended this important event.
