National Council of Insurance Legislators membership appropriation

This bill appropriates $20,000 from Minnesota's general fund for fiscal year 2026 and another $20,000 for fiscal year 2027 to pay membership dues for Minnesota's participation in the National Council of Insurance Legislators. The funds will be paid to the commissioner of commerce to cover membership costs. This is a one-time funding measure for a procedural membership, not a policy change affecting residents or businesses. The bill directly affects the Commerce Department's budget and Minnesota's representation in this national insurance policy organization.
