WASHINGTON (AP) — The American Insurance Association trade group spent $230,000 in the first quarter to lobby the federal government on financial regulatory reform, a bankruptcy option for states, disaster preparedness and other issues.
The lobbying sum for January-March was down from the $320,000 that the organization spent in the same quarter a year ago, and the $310,000 that it spent in last year's fourth quarter.
The organization said in an April 20 filing with the House clerk's office that it lobbied on implementation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which tightened restrictions on banks and Wall Street. The law also created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
