Day two of the BenefitsPRO Virtual Broker Expo kicked off with NAHU president Janet Trautwein offering up a brass-tacks look at our political landscape. "My biggest objective when I go into a meeting with someone I don't already know is that when I walk out, they don't know if I'm a Republican or a Democrat," she said.
