The Affordable Insurance and Recovery (AIR) Act

Dear [Your Elected Official],

As your constituent, I urge you to support the Affordable Insurance Recovery (AIR) Act by Senator Wiener and vote YES when it goes through the Senate Judiciary and Insurance Committees. 
California is experiencing worsening climate disasters like historic wildfires, flooding, and extreme heat—all driven by excessive greenhouse gas pollution. Oil and gas companies have understood these risks for decades, but lied to the public so they could continue to fuel the crisis.
The AIR Act would help make home insurance affordable and available in California. It would allow the Attorney General to take large oil and gas corporations to court to hold them accountable and return funds to Californians, who are currently bearing these costs through high insurance premiums. It would help prevent FAIR Plan insolvency, avoid major rate hikes, and reduce long-term taxpayer burdens.
I strongly support the AIR Act and urge you to do the same. We have an opportunity for California to lead the nation in holding polluters accountable and protecting communities already suffering from climate impacts.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

[Your City & State]

Summary

SUPPORT AFFORDABLE INSURANCE IN CALIFORNIA The Affordable Insurance and Recovery (AIR) Act, SB 982, will stabilize the housing insurance market and protect Californians from climate-driven hikes. Wildfires, heat waves, and floods—made worse by the climate crisis—are driving up insurance premiums and energy bills for Californians. Homeowners struggle to find coverage, and when insurance costs surge, landlords pass those hikes on to renters.  Legislators must hold polluters accountable for climate-driven disasters their products have caused. That’s why Senator Scott Wiener introduced the Affordable Insurance and Recovery (AIR) Act (SB 982) to make insurance affordable for California’s working families. This bill would help make home insurance affordable and available in California. It would allow the Attorney General to take large oil and gas corporations to court to hold them accountable and protect Californians, who are currently bearing these costs through high insurance premiums. Tell your legislator to take action to hold corporate polluters accountable, reduce costs, and support affordable insurance now.
