Hi All
You are invited to join our Teleconference Saturday 2/24/24 at 10 AM, for a discussion of California's Insurance Crisis.
Our guest will be Rex Frazier, President of the Personal Insurance Federation of California. You can see his Bio here.
Rex will provide us with the background of this crisis in the California insurance industry and answer our related questions.
We've all seen the news articles, and some of us have been personally impacted by an insurance crisis that is evolving in California. Some major insurance companies have decided to stop writing new policies for homeowners or leave the state entirely. Insurance availability can impact housing construction and homeownership throughout the state.
Regarding the 2024 legislative session, 2218 new bills introduced for the 2024 session. We've flagged 140 bills to screen (linked here). Over 60 of those are placeholder "spot" bills without content. Those are requited to be populated with content by March 10.
The worst bill so far is SB-951 the California Coastal Act of 1976: coastal zone: City and County of San Francisco by Scott Wiener, of course. This is the next step in his campaign to undermine the Coastal Act
to encourage luxury housing on our precious coast - think Miami Beach. The Coastal Commission has voted to oppose SB 951 unless it's amended to remove sections 1 and 2. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors has also adopted a resolution to oppose it. We suggest you begin preparing your opposition letter to submit through the position letter portal. We'll let you know when the bill is assigned to a policy committee.
There are many resources here for you to use throughout the session.
Please donate here to keep us going throughout the legislative session.

Our target is to have enough monthly contributors to sustain us so we don't have to continuously ask you for donations. And we don't want to have a required membership fee like many other organizations. Just 140 people contributing $25 / month would sustain us. If you can be one of those 140 people, please donate here.
