A RESOLUTION
Designating the month of September 2026 as "Life Insurance
Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania.
WHEREAS, Six million Pennsylvania residents have life
insurance coverage with an average benefit of $148,000; and
WHEREAS, According to the American Council of Life Insurers,
the life insurance industry in Pennsylvania paid $11.7 billion
to beneficiaries in 2024, providing a tremendous source of
financial relief and security to families that experienced the
loss of a loved one; and
WHEREAS, Life insurers pay out $31.9 million a day to
Pennsylvanians in life insurance and annuities; and

financially dependent on a loved one or caregiver; and
WHEREAS, During times like these when so many families
continue to struggle, life insurance coverage is more important
than ever because individuals have fewer financial resources to
fall back on, increasing their financial vulnerability; and
WHEREAS, The nonprofit organization Life Happens, the
National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors and a
coalition representing hundreds of leading life insurance
companies and organizations have designated September as "Life
Insurance Awareness Month" to encourage consumers to think about
their need for life insurance protection, seek advice from a
qualified insurance professional and take the actions necessary
to achieve a financially secure future for their loved ones;
therefore be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives designate the
month of September 2026 as "Life Insurance Awareness Month" in
Pennsylvania; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives urge residents of
this Commonwealth to learn more about life insurance and its
benefits.
