Progressive Thought Matters wants to congratulate Board Member, Kentucky State Representative Steve Riggs on his election as President of the National Conference of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL). NCOIL is a legislative organization comprised principally of legislators serving on state insurance and financial institutions committees around the nation. NCOIL writes Model Laws in insurance, works to both preserve the state jurisdiction over insurance as established by the McCarran-Ferguson Act seventy years ago and to serve as an educational forum for public policy makers and interested parties.
