Last week, FNIC team members traveled to Washington, DC to attend the 2026 Capitol Conference with the National Association of Benefits and Insurance Professionals Nebraska (NABIP) chapter.

As NABIP board members representing the Omaha and Lincoln chapters, Molly Stickels and Mike Gray joined professionals from across Nebraska to meet with our senators and members of Congress. It was a great opportunity to talk about issues that directly affect employers, employees, and the benefits professionals who support them.

Some of the key topics discussed included:
• Healthcare price transparency
• Evolving ACA market dynamics
• Recent Medicare and CMS changes affecting consumers and the agent community

We’re proud to spotlight Kate Eytalis and the thoughtful perspective she brings to FNIC!

She is passionate about helping businesses create strong foundations for their teams and guiding clients through important decisions with clarity and care.

FNIC was proud to have a strong representation at the 9th Annual Ignite Women in Business Conference in Omaha last week.

It was a day filled with meaningful conversations, leadership insights, and opportunities to connect.

Experiences like Ignite reflect FNIC’s commitment to investing in our people and supporting their professional growth. When our team has opportunities to learn, connect, and bring new ideas back to the organization, it strengthens our culture and helps all of us continue to grow.

We’re proud to spotlight Ashley Sailors, whose dedication to building strong relationships and driving sustainable growth makes her a valued part of FNIC.

Thank you, Ashley, for your commitment and the positive impact you make at FNIC every day.

As we move through 2026, one thing is clear. Agriculture continues to operate in a dynamic environment.

At FNIC, we are here to help you navigate it.

Markets are shifting. Acreage decisions are influencing supply expectations. Export demand has become less predictable. Weather interruptions and tighter planting windows are increasing the financial impact of timing.

In this kind of environment, risk management cannot be reactive.

You need clarity around your revenue exposure. You need structure in your crop insurance decisions. And you need a trusted advisor who understands how market movement, production variability, and coverage strategy all connect.

That is where strong partnerships matter most.

If you are reevaluating your 2026 risk strategy, we are here to help.
