Assembly
The New York State Assembly Insurance Committee develops and reviews legislation concerning the business of insurance, consumer protections, rates, coverage requirements, and regulation of insurance providers serving New Yorkers. It oversees policy areas such as health, automobile, property, life, and disability insurance, promoting a fair insurance marketplace and safeguarding policyholder rights.
The Committee’s authority spans Insurance Law, General Business Law (with a focus on insurance-related provisions), Banking Law (insurance company operations), and relevant sections of Public Health Law (regulation of health plans and managed care). It also addresses legal frameworks related to insurance fraud and financial solvency standards.
Assembly Member David Weprin is the Chair, and the Ranking Member is a senior Republican. The committee’s membership fluctuates around 25 members, and meetings typically occur during legislative session weeks, with exact schedules posted on the Assembly’s website. The latest membership roster is maintained online.
