Are NAIFA Members in Your State Running for State or Federal Office?

This is an election year, and a number of NAIFA members are taking their political involvement to the next level. At least three NAIFA members are running for state-level offices:

  • NAIFA Trustee Wes Booker, Arkansas State House of Representative, District 71
  • John Raley, Iowa State Senate, District 45
  • Adam Solano, Illinois State Senate, District 31

If you know of any other NAIFA members who are running for state or national office this year, please let us know using the contact button below. We would like to create a profile article featuring NAIFA's advocacy efforts and our members running for office. (We love our members who are running for local positions, too, but NAIFA does state and federal advocacy, so that will be our focus for this piece.)

While we're at it, this is also a great opportunity to remind our leaders to promote NAIFA's Grassroots Engagement Training Series. A free benefit for NAIFA members, the three sessions teach financial professionals to be more effective advocates, from the basics up to advanced concepts including how to run for office. Wes Booker is among those who have completed the course and received NAIFA's Financial Security Advocate Credly badge.
