LEGISLATIVE UPDATE #5

I have just spoken to Martin Lopez from Representative Bob Allen's office who gave me the following updates and recommendations as to what we can do to support the passage of the Health Insurance Supplement House and Senate Bills.

  1. We need to contact our local legislators and ask them to co-sponsor HB 105 and SB 442.

  2. We need to contact members of the House Fiscal Council which will hear HB 105 next and ask for their support.  Tell them that this Bill has received favorable review from all government agencies.  Be respectful when asking for their support.  Representative Joe Negron is the Chairman of the Fiscal Council and he is the one that will decide the fate of the Bill by allowing it on the agenda.  Negron's telephone number and e-mail address is listed along with all the other Committee members on the HASA Web Site www.hasaonline.com click on HOT MAIL.

  3. We need to contact Representative Bob Allen and thank him for filing House Bill 105.  (321) 449-5111, bob.allen@myfloridahouse.gov

  4. We also need to contact Senator Alfred Lawson and thank him for filing the companion Bill SB 442.  (850) 5086 lawson.alfred.web@flsenate.gov.   Ask Senator Lawson what we can do to help him get this Bill passed.
