In the next couple of weeks ou should receive a renewal letter in the mail soliciting you for your dues. As most of the dues will be earmarked to hire a lobbyist for the next legislative session, we ask that you please respond quickly so that we can support our agenda. The annual dues are $250. If you have joined the NCIA during the last 12 months, that rate will be prorated accordingly. There are also other opportunities for companies that would like more exposure.
