NTSA ARC

 

 
The NTSA Advocacy Resource Center (ARC) is a member-only website featuring an interactive 403(b)/457 plan industry advocacy map of the United States, color-coded and sortable by issue area, with detailed summaries for each state, including:

• NTSA’s engagement level in the state
• Partisan political control of the governor’s mansion and legislature
• Legislative session dates
• Relevant active and/or proposed legislation and regulation
• The structure and status of each state’s defined benefit and defined contribution retirement systems for public school employees
• State-level disclosure requirements
• State-level fiduciary requirements
• Whether teachers are exempt from Social Security

NTSA and ARA representation in state capitals and Washington, DC ensure regulatory initiatives at the federal and state level protect the industry, American workers and the plan professionals who serve them. NTSA staff tracks, analyzes, and distills these bills down to their core, presenting its membership with succinct calls to action, fighting for uniformity in state and local rules across the country, and flexibility to design benefits that suit the needs of a unique workforce.

Our state legislative advocacy program ensures that you are ahead of the curve on the initiatives that matter as we determine which proposals are truly threats and where opportunities lie. Our deep level of analysis allows us to provide members with greater insight into which proposals will affect our industry as we collaborate with Partners in crafting the best strategies on your behalf.
