Dear FAIFA Member:
The Legislative Session begins on March 6, 2007 in
Tallahassee and there are many key issues coming before the Florida
Legislature that could potentially harm your clients and threaten
your success. As an insurance professional your chief concern is
giving your clients financial piece of mind and offering solutions
to help protect their assets. Just like the financial protection
you give your clients, the Florida Association of Insurance and
Financial Advisors works to protect your unique interests by
advocating on your behalf before the Florida Legislature the
Department of Financial Services, and the Governor's office.
Click on the hyperlink below to view FAIFA Lobbyist Tim Meenan give
a quick preview of several key issues we expect to come before the
Legislature. (Once you get to our Web page, you may have to scroll
down just a little, also depending on the speed of your Internet
connection; it may take a minute or so to download.)

If you are new to FAIFA, our Legislative Day on the Hill is a
once-a-year event where members come together to meet face-to-face
with their legislators and their staffs to discuss pressing issues
facing the insurance and financial services industry and to educate
them about the important role insurance and financial services play
in their constituents’ lives. It’s also a great
opportunity to network with your colleagues and to expand your
relationships with members of the Florida Legislature while
becoming actively involved in the political process.
FAIFA’s Legislative Day on the Hill for 2007 is March 12 and
is the largest gathering of insurance agents during the session.
We’ll kick off at 11:00 AM with a
luncheon hosted by FAIFA lobbyist Tim Meenan. Tim will report on
our legislative agenda and give an issues update. We have also
invited Florida’s new CFO Alex Sink and hope she will be able
to join us. The afternoon is free for appointments (in group
fashion) with your legislators and we will end the day with a
Legislative Reception on the 22nd floor of the Capitol.
If you have already registered, thank you and we are looking
forward to seeing you in Tallahassee on March 12. If not, click the
following link for complete registration information:
