FICPA Advocacy

The FICPA serves as your liaison with various legislative and regulatory agencies in Florida. Your Governmental Affairs team helps develop annual proposed legislative and regulatory policies, monitors state legislation and regulatory actions, lobbies on behalf of the FICPA, and communicates changes to FICPA members.
