MADISON, WI (August 12, 2014) — CUNA interim president and CEO Bill Hampel issued the following statement following an announcement by John Magill, CUNA executive vice president for government affairs and special assistant to the president, that Magill is leaving the association September 5.
“John Magill has been a significant leader in CUNA’s advocacy team for almost nine years, and we wish him well,” said CUNA interim president and CEO Bill Hampel. “He will be sorely missed.”
