A Statement from Mark Wilson, Florida Chamber of Commerce President and CEO regarding the passage of SB 2D

“I applaud Governor Ron DeSantis’ leadership in calling this special session to stand up for consumers and continue tackling the root causes driving up property insurance rates. As Governor DeSantis rightly pointed out in his proclamation, it is clear Florida has a litigation problem that is costing Florida ratepayers when they can least afford it. The necessary lawsuit abuse reforms the Governor forged consensus around and put forth by Senator Boyd and Representative Trumbull in SB 2D/HB 1D will help build the infrastructure for a more stable and competitive insurance market.” – Mark Wilson, Florida Chamber of Commerce President & CEO
