Our Mission: To influence the legislative and regulatory environment.

What is a Political Action Committee (PAC)?
A PAC is a committee of like-minded individuals that raises money to support candidates for office or to influence legislation. Nearly every industry has some form of state and/or federal PAC.  NYIA works with elected officials on a regular basis to elevate their understanding of the insurance industry, issues facing insurers in New York, and how their decisions impact the business of insurance. With the unified voice of its members, NYIA serves as both a resource and an influential authority on insurance issues in New York State.

Why should you participate in the NYIA PAC?
PACs have proven to be ap effective tool in the public policymaking arena. They provide opportunities for influence and access to key lawmakers. Simply stated, larger PACs provide greater opportunities for members to be seen and heard with respect to their issues and to influence public policy outcomes. Each pledge of support from every member is vital to our efforts to shape the debate on important insurance issues. Political decisions can directly impact your organization's ability to achieve its business objectives and your bottom line. The success of your organization depends on its ability to mount an effective lobby for change. Our success will be impacted and measured by the level of our commitment.
