GOVERNMENT RELATIONS AND LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY
The cornerstone of NYCAIFA membership! For less than a dollar a day, a member has “business insurance”.
NYCAIFA’S/NAIFA’s local, state, and national lobbying efforts allow us to retain and grow our businesses by proactively protecting our interests.
Keeping the tax free build up of life insurance cash values or annuity products intact and fighting to maintain the tax free income of death benefits are just two examples where NYCAIFA refuses to allow some beaurocrat with the mere stroke of a pen to change the way we protect the interests of our clients and run our businesses.
