NAIFA-Tennessee's 2022 Legislative Day was a HUGE success! NAIFA members gathered in person in Nashville on April 5th for a day of education, networking, and advocacy.

Over 40 NAIFA-TN members were joined by several legislators, including House Speaker Cameron Sexton, Speaker Pro Tempore Pat Marsh, Assistant House Majority Leader Ron Gant, Chairman David Hawk, and Senate Majority Leader Jack Johnson. After hearing from our lawmakers, attendees met with their individual legislators.

Thank you to all who showed up to represent our clients, our businesses, and our industry! 

NAIFA state legislative days provide great opportunities for insurance and financial professionals to share with lawmakers their expertise and understanding of how laws impact Main Street consumers. Insurance is a state-regulated industry and NAIFA works tirelessly to ensure the industry is being protected. No one tells the Main Street stories about the financial concerns, challenges, and triumphs of families and businesses as well as NAIFA members. These are stories that lawmakers want to hear.

NAIFA-Tennessee is pleased to announce that Rebecca Schulter, LUTCF, of UCL Financial Group in Memphis, TN, loyal member since 2015, is a winner of a 2021 Four Under Forty award. Additional winners this year are J. Cal Anderson, CFP, CLU, of Ameriprise Financial in Alpharetta, GA, loyal member since 2008; Joanna Dellosa, LUTCF, FSS, RICP, LACP, CLU, of Wilshire Group Financial Services in Los Angeles, loyal member since 2012; and Steven Walker, LUTCF, of Gate City Insurance in Fargo, ND, loyal member since 2009.

The Four Under Forty Awards recognize highly motivated, well-rounded NAIFA members under the age of 40 who balance their work and home lives and are successful at helping their clients secure sound financial futures. They exhibit extraordinary professional success relatively early in their insurance and financial services careers.

This year’s recipients were honored at NAIFA’s National Leadership Conference in Washington, D.C., on December 6.

“The talented insurance and financial professionals who are Advisor Today’s 2021 Four Under Forty award winners represent the new generation of agents and advisors ensuring the success of our industry and financial prosperity of American families and small businesses for decades to come,” said NAIFA CEO Kevin Mayeux. “Their stories provide inspiration to anyone who may be considering an insurance or financial services career or who may be facing early-career challenges. They provide excellent examples of how hard work, dedication, and the support of a strong professional association can bring success.”
