NAIFA Trustee [Aprilyn Chavez Geissler](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprilyn-chavez-geissler-364006147/), LACP, loyal member since 2005, says that insurance and financial professionals offer an important perspective on how legislative decisions affect Main Street Americans and their communities. [NAIFA's Congressional Conference](https://conference.naifa.org/2022), May 23-24 in Washington, D.C., is a great opportunity for agents and advisors to talk with lawmakers about issues important to their clients and communities.

 

 

Chavez Geissler is also a member of NAIFA's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Council. NAIFA's 7th annual DEI Symposium will take place the morning of May 23 just before the Congressional Conference Day 1 sessions at the same location. [Registration for this free event](https://tdc.naifa.org/2022) is open to all insurance and financial professionals.
