The 2024 Congressional Conference is coming to Washington, D.C., May 20-21. This is NAIFA's can't-miss signature grassroots event and the most impactful association fly-in in the insurance and financial services industry. See who is attending. If your name is not on the list, register today to have it added. If you know of colleagues who might like to attend, why don't you give them a friendly nudge? The more people we have in Washington advocating for our businesses, clients, and communities the more influential we are.

What's at stake?

There might be a false perception that nothing gets done in Washington during an election year. In reality, policies are moving forward that will profoundly impact the businesses and clients of financial professionals. A case in point the U.S. Department of Labor's proposed fiduciary-only rule. Regulators are poised to finalize the rule soon and radically reduce the choices of consumers seeking help with their retirement planning. NAIFA supports efforts by lawmakers to stop the DOL from finalizing the rule.

Tax policy is also front and center. An election year brings out myriad tax proposals, many of which could take aim at the products and services financial professionals use to provide clients with financial security. The work of NAIFA grassroots advocates is vital to inform lawmakers that misguided tax policy choices would derail the financial planning that many Americans have done to secure their futures and protect their families. The Congressional Conference, as the largest association fly-in in the insurance and financial services industry, offers an unmatched opportunity for financial professionals to speak as one voice and maximize their influence on Capitol Hill. So don't miss out. Add your name to the list, today.
