Ohio Agents Nab Senate Insurance Chairman as Executive Vice President

November 19, 2004

Ohio Senate Insurance Committee Chair Scott R. Nein, a Republican, has joined the Ohio Association of Insurance Agents as executive vice president, the group announced recently.

The group, affiliated with the national Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of America, said Nein’s role in the No. 2 staff position entails assisting in the overall management of association activities including oversight of staff and select association goods, services and programs. Nein will also support the CEO, Thomas H. Hardy, by serving as liaison to key committees.

Nein’s position as chairman of the Senate Insurance, Commerce and Labor Committee is not his only asset to the Ohio agents’ lobby. He serves on other key committees and previously served in the Republican leadership of the Ohio House of Representatives.

Of notable interest to the insurance industry, he sponsored Senate Bill 97, which addressed the uninsured/underinsured motorists coverage crisis in Ohio. He also sponsored SB 154, modifying Ohio’s insurance agent laws.
