The Florida Legislature has done its part. HB 1171 has passed the House and Senate by more than 80% approval vote. This bill will take positive steps towards addressing Florida’s current insurance nightmare by allowing more private companies to compete with the state-run Citizens Property Insurance Corporation and giving Florida consumers actual choice in the insurance marketplace, but only if the Governor allows it to become law.
