National Council of Insurance Legislators membership dues funding provided, and money appropriated.

HF 2028 provides $20,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $20,000 for fiscal year 2027 from the state general fund to cover Minnesota's membership dues in the National Council of Insurance Legislators (NCIL). This bill directly affects the Minnesota Department of Commerce, which will use the funds to maintain the state's membership in this national organization. The key provision is a one-time appropriation to pay the annual dues required for Minnesota to participate in NCIL, a group that facilitates collaboration among state insurance regulators. This is a procedural funding measure with no direct impact on insurance regulations or the public.
