Re: What bs! Too bad they can convince a lot of people of that.
The NNA is only a for-profit organization and does not have authority over any of our Notary Signing businesses. HOWEVER, because of their name (National Notary Association) and their PR expertise, many state legislative bodies take the easy route of using them as a way to determine what to do within their jurisdictions with regard to Notaries Public. So our best recourse, in my opinion, is to be sure to make the REAL Notaries Public voices heard with regard to the services we offer to the mortgage industry and others. If we don't stand up to the NNA, those busy legislators who don't have time to read the bills before they vote, will take the opinion of the lobbyists who are in front of them to pass the laws that affect us.
We Notaries Public need to stand together if we want to NOT have the rules NNA-SPeW is putting out there enacted by our governing entities. Check out what's happening at www.AmericanNotarySigningAgents.org. That group is working to offset the requirements being pushed upon our private businesses by an organization that does not represent us.
