Foster is NCUA's Public and Congressional Affairs director

The NCUA on Monday named Bob Foster as its new director of the Office of Public and Congressional Affairs.

"NAFCU welcomes Chairman Mark McWatters' selection of Bob Foster as the new Public and Congressional Affairs director," said NAFCU Executive Vice President of Government Affairs and General Counsel Carrie Hunt. "NAFCU had a productive relationship with Bob during his previous tenure at the NCUA, and we look forward to engaging with him once again to work toward improving the credit union industry."

Foster, who succeeds Todd Harper, served as the PACA's deputy director between 2008 and 2011. More recently, he has served as legislative director for Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., deputy assistant secretary at the Treasury Department's Office of Legislative Affairs, and legislative director and senior policy advisor for the late Rep. Michael Oxley, R-Ohio.
