Florida Association of Insurance Agents

Make a Difference!

Our influence on laws governing your business depends entirely upon cultivating a strong presence in the halls of Florida's Capitol and in Washington. Talented, experienced lobbyists do their part on your behalf. Still, senators and representatives who shape our laws listen most closely to the voices of those who put them in office-their constituents, the citizens of Florida. That includes you, and the 8,000-plus independent agents who work for agency members of FAIA.

Individual efforts to present views-through letters, phone calls, face-to-face visits and the like-make a definite impression on lawmakers. But that impression becomes a powerful one when you join with fellow agents and speak with a unified voice. You accomplish that by joining IMPACT, FAIAPAC, and InsurPac.

IMPACT, FAIAPAC, and InsurPac provide a means for FAIA's independent agents to pool resources and make meaningful financial contributions to legislators' election campaigns. Your contributions express support for, and help elect, candidates who may be sympathetic to your goals. Frankly, such contributions help ensure that when you speak, your voices are heard.

Make no mistake, a political contribution does not and should not assure your views will prevail. It simply allows your presence to be felt as you stand shoulder-to-shoulder with numerous special interests-some hostile to the insurance industry-clamoring for legislators' attention. Other groups pour thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars into political campaigns. To begin leveling the playing field, every agent must do his or her part by joining IMPACT, FAIAPAC, and InsurPac.
