California Assembly Bill (AB) 125
I spearheaded legislation in California to fix an unintended consequence of an insurance department omnibus bill from the prior session. The omnibus bill prohibited gap contracts from providing deductible coverage. The bill I worked on provided restoration of deductible coverage and was signed into law on May 9, 2011. https://ownerguard.com/ViewFile.ashx?guid=88dedc80-d8bd-4729-aef7-30864bb04d66
