At the start of the 2025 Connecticut legislative session, PIACT set an ambitious goal to make significant reforms to the state’s excess and surplus lines placement process; protect consumers from increased premiums; and protect producers from errors-and-omissions exposures. Now with the 2025 session in the rearview mirror, PIACT can claim with confidence: Mission accomplished. With the passage of H.B.6981, PIACT secured a major win that will modernize the way brokers access the E&S market. Meanwhile, PIACT engaged in advocacy on bills related to flood insurance disclosures, dog breed underwriting and fossil fuel infrastructure surcharges—shaping outcomes that reflect the realities and needs of producers and consumers alike.
