House passes insurance reform legislation

Members of the House closed out the legislative week Thursday, passing four bills that are aimed at driving down the cost of insurance for families, drivers, homeowners and businesses across the state. Speaker of the House Jon Burns, R-Newington,  referred to the package as “historic insurance affordability reform.” 

“Georgia is leading the nation in tackling affordability and driving down the cost of living for our neighbors—from energy and healthcare to housing and now insurance,” said Burns. “Georgians rely on their insurers during some of life’s most challenging moments, and we are committed to ensuring families across our state can count on transparency, accountability and reliability from the companies they trust to keep them covered.”
