WASHINGTON–House floor action on two insurance bills will be delayed until Congress returns to work in September after a new California congresswoman voiced concern that one of the bills would inadvertently preempt California law.
Industry lobbyists, who declined to be named, said floor action on the Insurance Information Act of 2008, or H.R. 5840, and the National Association of Registered Agents and Brokers Reform Act, also known as H.R. 5611, will be delayed until Congress returns from its summer recess Sept. 8.
The bills were scheduled to be acted on under the suspension calendar, according to the lobbyists.
