Committee refers HF2028 to ways and means to continue Minnesota membership in NCOIL
Summary
Representative Gerald Driscoll moved to re-refer House File 2028 to the Committee on Ways and Means so Minnesota maintains membership in the National Conference of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL). The committee approved the motion by voice vote.
March 12, 2024 — The Minnesota House Commerce Finance and Policy Committee voted to refer House File 2028 to the House Committee on Ways and Means. Representative Gerald Driscoll said the bill continues Minnesota's participation in NCOIL, a national organization of state insurance legislators that develops model regulatory language and convenes lawmakers and industry participants.
Why it matters: Members described NCOIL as a bipartisan forum that works closely with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners to exchange model language and information about insurance policy trends. Supporters said continued membership helps Minnesota lawmakers learn about issues that other states encounter and can improve the state's work on insurance policy.
Procedure and next steps: Representative Driscoll moved HF2028 to be re-referred to Ways and Means; Representative Mary Davids and others spoke in favor of continued membership. The committee approved the motion by voice vote; the bill will be considered by Ways and Means.
