Advocacy Update: Legislature passes insurance reform in Special Session

“We want to thank Gov. DeSantis for signing this great bill, CPA Lawmakers Rep. Caruso and Sen. Gruters for sponsoring it, and the entire Legislature for supporting the profession. This is a proud day in our history,” FICPA President & CEO Shelly Weir said.

In a letter addressed to the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), the AICPA and all 54 state CPA societies ask that all BOI enforcement actions be suspended until one year after the conclusion of all court cases related to NSBA v. Yellen.

On Tuesday, April 2, HB 813 by Rep. Mike Caruso (SB 954) was signed by the presiding officers and officially presented to Gov. DeSantis for his review. The Governor now has until April 17 to act on the bill. He may sign, let it go into law without his signature, or veto.
