SB 593 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: various changes to insurance laws.

SB 593 amends multiple insurance laws to update licensing, fee collection, and revocation rules for insurance agents and navigators. It requires agents without Social Security numbers to submit sworn statements instead of SSNs when paying annual fees, and adds new grounds for license revocation - including failure to pay child support, delinquent taxes, or unpaid unemployment contributions. The bill also modifies rules around a state healthcare reinsurance program, restricting the commissioner from seeking federal waiver changes without new legislation before 2023. These changes directly affect insurance professionals who apply for or maintain licenses in the state. The bill passed its third reading in November 2025.
