We were there for annuity holders, with nearly $98 billion in benefit payments. And we were there for people who, seeking peace of mind, purchased almost 48 million life insurance policies. Under Paul and the board’s leadership, ACLI and its life insurance company members will continue to advocate for public policies that help make certain all Americans can access a secure financial future.”
