151a and Indexed Annuities
MGAs - We Need Your Help!
We understand it's the end of summer and everyone is busy but, we need your help - and we need your help now!
Following a very successful fly-in in Washington (for details and pictures see www.sec151a.com and click on the airplane icon), we have plenty of work to do. Now we must activate the hundreds of agents and producers who support our cause. We need individual agents to get involved in order to keep building momentum in favor of our legislation.
Here's what we need each and every MGA to do in order to magnify our impact on Congress. If each MGA identifies 10 - 25 agents who will get active, we can generate hundreds, and possibly thousands, of calls into Congress. This will have a significant impact!
Steps to help:
- Identify 10 - 25 agents who will help us. Take steps to ensure these agents express their views to Senators and Representatives using the tools listed below.
- Make sure these agents visit the website www.sec151a.com and use the resources available. Tools include an elected official "finder tool" as well as other helpful items needed to express their views on 151a such as:
- Sample letter to Representatives
- Sample letter to Senators
- Reasons to sponsor HR 2733
- Reasons to sponsor SB 1389
- Talking points - Senate
- Talking points - House
August is the perfect month to call elected officials who are on recess back in their states/districts. It's also beneficial to visit a town hall meeting to meet personally with their elected officials.
Other creative ways to help spread the word:
- Blast emails to all your agents
- Discuss 151a and what agents can do at training sessions
- Help find agents in our target districts by matching your agent addresses with our target district list
- Report back - it's very important we know what agents and MGAs are doing. Please email nannuities@nacolah.com so we know of calls, letters and visits to elected officials, and can leverage those efforts.
Thanks for all your help. Because of your hard work, our voices are being heard in Washington!
