Democrats in the Senate just dropped a six-bill package aimed at tackling the state’s property insurance crunch.
The set of proposals is part of a larger “Affordability Agenda” that state Democrats are putting together ahead of the 2026 Session. Each measure targets one or multiple factors contributing to the rising cost of living.
Senate Democratic Leader Lori Berman of Boynton Beach urged Republican lawmakers to “put aside partisanship” and back the bills, which among other things would cap rate hikes, speed claim resolutions and beef up consumer protections.
“To put it simply: We want you to keep more of your hard-earned money and we want you to get what you pay for,” she said in a statement.
