Advocacy
Supporting PAC is instrumental to our industry's overall success.
"I have always felt that those in Washington and Raleigh have a huge impact on how we conduct our businesses. It is important that we have access to those that impact us. I'm passionate about PAC because it's our livelihood and we must protect it." - Harry Bray, Harry E. Bray Insurance Realty, Inc., Providence, NC

Insurance is one of the most heavily regulated industries, and every decision made by state legislators or the Commissioner of Insurance can affect your agency’s bottom line. IIANC serves as your advocate, with our lobbyist Joe Stewart representing independent agents at the NC General Assembly and coordinating on federal issues with the Big “I” in Washington.
From road safety to insurance modernization, IIANC is actively monitoring and advocating on a range of legislative issues that affect independent agencies. Stay informed about our 2025 priorities - like hands-free driving laws, flood concerns, and rate filing reforms - plus recent changes to RCE and COI laws.
IIANC's political action committee (iPAC) empowers members to support pro-industry candidates through one personal contribution. Combined with our strong lobbying presence and grassroots connections, iPAC is essential to advancing policies that protect and grow the independent agency model. Whether you give $10 or $1,000, every dollar makes a difference - and shows your commitment to the future of our profession.
