One-on-one with California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara | Sacramento Sessions

California's property insurance crisis is affecting many of the state's residents, from homeowners to renters to landlords, in different ways — and regardless of whether their homes or buildings are in areas with high wildfire risk. A year after he first unveiled his multi-part plan to address insurance availability and affordability issues, Commissioner Ricardo Lara talks with CalMatters about his efforts to stabilize the state's insurance market, what else needs to be done and who else should be involved.

Live Streamed Thursday, September 19th, from 1:00pm — 2:00pm at the CalMatters Studio.

We almost made it to the end before asking a dumb climate change question. Insurance companies shouldn't be able to insure the fossil fuel industry? But I like Lara's response which was he'll only look at data and facts. Let's get out of this crisis before we get further distracted by climate religion.
