MBA Names Chief Lobbyist

The Mortgage Bankers Association has promoted Francis Creighton to be the trade group's chief lobbyist. He replaces Erick Gustafson, who is leaving the MBA to head the government relations department of a multinational company. The new vice president and chief lobbyist will be responsible for leading the federal and state legislative activities of the association, according to MBA senior vice president Steve O'Connor. "His background and leadership skills are an ideal fit for managing the day-to-day responsibilities of our legislative and political teams," Mr. O'Connor said. On Capitol Hill, Mr. Creighton previously worked for Rep. Steve Israel, D-N.Y., and the late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y.
