Legislative Advocacy
Jennifer Lindacher
Lawmakers will return to Albany in January 2020 to resume the second year of their two-year legislative session. In the first session, which ended in June, Big I NY members rose to the challenge, sending emails and making over 400 phone calls to key lawmakers on a multitude of harmful bills. Fortunately, our efforts paid off and we were able to block the passage of a number of these dangerous bills. Beneficial legislation to protect homeowners from unscrupulous roofing contractors passed both the Senate and Assembly and was signed into law by the Governor. Mark your calendars to attend Independent Agents Advocacy Day on March 3, 2020.
