First, a big THANK YOU to all our attendees and exhibitors at the 2023 NIIA Trade Show this past week. It is always great seeing the industry come together for this annual event, showcasing markets, solutions, and building the relationships that make us all successful.
As many of you already know, there has been a change in leadership at the Division of Insurance, and we welcome Commissioner Scott Kipper back to the position. Our members have known Commissioner Kipper for many years, and we look forward to working with he and team in the months ahead.
Our focus now turns to legislation! Advocacy for members is critical and is the unsung hero of our association. Your Legislative Team is continuously working behind the scenes on the issues that matter most, but there is no greater value than our collective unity in Carson City for our NIIA Day on the Hill. Please consider joining us on April 6, 2023, when the NIIA Legislative Team and engaged NIIA members spend the day meeting with our lawmakers sharing the issues and concerns that affect our group and its consumers. This session we are focusing on Red Brush solutions, SIGs, Non-Resident Licensees, Auto Liability Costs, and opposition to Med Mal Reform. Your voice is our voice, and we need your help to succeed, so we hope you'll join us on April 6th!

The 82nd Nevada Legislative Session has commenced. The NIIA Legislative Committee continues to keep their finger on the pulse of state legislation that affects our industry and our insureds. The NIIA Day on the Hill is scheduled for April 6, 2023. (JOIN US)
Did you know the NIIPAC is the largest independent insurance agents political action committee in Nevada. InsurPac is the largest property-casualty insurance industry political action committee in the nation. Both NIIPAC and InsurPac play key roles in the Big I's legislative success.
As the NIIA committee members review proposed legislation, hold discussions, and schedule meetings they consider the meaning of membership to the Nevada Independent Insurance Agents, The Nevada Big 'I'. Just like insurance offers protection to our clients, the association offers protection of the independent insurance channel. Opportunities for education, up to date news and resources, networking, professional development, and advocacy to secure your lively hood.
We invite and encourage you to get involved, reach out to your Directors and the Executive of NIIA at membershipservices@niia.org to share your voice, collaborate ideas to improve the industry and your bottom line.
There are a number of issues this session that are top of mind and our committee is prepared to address new proposals as they come about during the process. For more details reach out to us for the 2023 Fact Sheet and learn how you can support us on April 6. We are all independent agents but we are not alone. Our association has made huge impact in our state by collaborating and being a community with a unified voice and standing by our industry.
