Day on the Hill 2026

The main event features speakers from government agencies, legislators, industry stakeholders, and NAIFA leadership. You'll learn about policymakers' perspectives, the current pressing issues confronting the insurance and financial services industries, and practical how-tos for member advocacy.

In the afternoon, you'll take what you've learned and go to Capitol Hill to advocate directly with your local state legislators on behalf of insurance and financial advisors in Washington state. We are happy to assist you in booking your appointments if you request that we do so!
