<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America''' (IIABA) is a national association of [[independent insurance agents]].<br />
<br />
The national association is headquartered in [[Alexandria, Virginia]] and has affiliate offices in every state and the District of Columbia.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.iiaba.net/eprise/main/CB_Website/usmap?ContentPreference=NA&ActiveState=0&ActiveTab=NA&ContentLevel1= | title = Map of IIABA Locations | accessdate = 2011-01-05 | publisher = Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America, Inc.}}</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The association was founded in 1896 as the National Association of Local Fire Insurance Agents. In 1913, the organization changed its name to the National Association of Insurance Agents when it expanded to include property-casualty business and coverages. The name was changed again in 1975 to the Independent Insurance Agents of America. In 2002, the association became the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (IIABA or the Big "I") to encompass the group's entire membership of independent insurance agents and brokers. Robert Rusbuldt is the current Big "I" president & CEO.<br />
<br />
==Lobbying efforts==<br />
The IIABA has spent more than $1 million in 2010 in lobbying efforts on [[Federal Crop Insurance Reform Act of 1994|federal crop insurance]], insurance licensing reform, and other insurance issues.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/summary.php?id=D000000181&cycle=A | title = Indep Insurance Agents & Brokers/America | accessdate = 2011-01-05 | publisher = [[The Center for Responsive Politics]]}}</ref><br />
<br />
The IIABA supported the [[National Association of Registered Agents and Brokers Reform Act of 2013 (H.R. 1155; 113th Congress)]], a bill which would reduce the regulatory costs of complying with multiple states' requirements for insurance companies, making it easier for the same company to operate in multiple states.<ref name=Kasper1>{{cite news|last=Kasperowicz|first=Pete|title=House votes to streamline cross-state insurance sales|url=http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/house/321375-house-votes-to-streamline-cross-state-insurance-sales|accessdate=11 September 2013|newspaper=The Hill|date=10 September 2013}}</ref><ref name=propcas360>{{cite web|last=Postal|first=Arthur D.|title=NARAB II Bill Passes in the House|url=http://www.propertycasualty360.com/2013/09/10/narab-ii-bill-passes-in-the-house|publisher=Property Casualty 360|accessdate=11 September 2013}}</ref><br />
