Big ‘I’ Gives $1.7M to Shape New Congress
The Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (IIABA or the Big “I”) said that its political action committee, InsurPac, distributed more than $1.7 million in the 2010 campaign cycle resulting in a 93 percent congressional victory rate.
In the 2010 election cycle, more than 5,000 independent agents supported InsurPac with personal, voluntary contributions. InsurPac distributes to federal campaigns and has a bipartisan track record.
“InsurPac supported more House and Senate campaigns than ever before, and distributed a record amount of money as the largest political action committee representing the property and casualty insurance market,” said Charles Symington, Big “I” senior vice president of government affairs.
Symington said InsurPac distributed $1,722,750 in support of 265 races, winning at least 247 of them for an amazing 93 percent victory rate.
