Advocacy

Two PACs. Two Purposes.

Every day your state and federal government affairs team is working to keep a fair and healthy marketplace for independent insurance agents and their customers. Our team monitor bills, nurtures legislative relationships, and fights for - or against - regulations that will impact our industry. The strength of our PACs grows each year from the contributions we receive from our members. These donations allow us to be represented and have a voice when it matters.

New Jersey Independent Insurance Agents (NJIIA) PAC

Big I NJ's strong and influential state PAC contributes to candidates for the New Jersey State Senate, Assembly, and Governor. Through agency contributions, we provide bi-partisan support for state candidates and legislators in Trenton who share our business concerns.

Our government affairs team, lead by our representative Frank Jones, and in partnership with AMG, works tirelessly to keep abreast of legislation that will directly impact the industry (and thus, your jobs and your consumers). Every effort is made by our team to keep a fair and thriving marketplace. We have built strong relationships with our legislators, have gained a reputation as a valuable source of industry information, and are regarded as vital member of the legislative community.

Contributions to the NJIIA PAC may be accepted in the form of agency checks. Individuals who are interested in supporting their local New Jersey efforts are also welcome to donate.

InsurPac is the independent agency system's only million dollar PAC and one of the largest small business PACs in the country.

Big I New Jersey is currently only $3600 away from meeting our 2022 InsurPac goal and just $6400 away from receiving the honor of Eagle Status from national Big I as a state association that has raised an average of $100 per member agency. Please consider donation no later than December 31, 2022 to help us meet these very important goals.

InsurPac is the federal political action committee of the national Big I, raising money to support candidates running for national office who support the best interest of the independent agency system and our consumers. The national Big I has an esteemed government affairs team - lead by Charles Symington, Sr. VP of Government Affairs - who are among the most respected in the industry.
