The National Conference of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL) is opposing the proposed creation of a federal commission to examine state workers' compensation laws, arguing that the recommendations of a similar commission in the past led to a crisis in the marketplace.

NCOIL unanimously adopted a "Resolution Opposing the Creation of a Federal Commission to Examine State Workers' Compensation Laws" at its Summer Meeting in Philadelphia on June 12. The resolution states that NCOIL "reiterates its support for the state-based workers' comp system and opposition to legislation that would broaden the federal role in that system."
