The Florida Mafia

Funding the Property Insurance Crisis in the Sunshine State

Who is making Florida unaffordable?

Campaign cash for Republican politicians. Predatory profits for insurance executives and investors. It resembles an organized criminal enterprise – with Florida renters and homeowners as its victims.

All Floridians, regardless of who we are, where we come from, or what we do for a living, should have the freedom to live in safe, affordable homes. Floridians deserve reforms to our property insurance market that put consumers first by providing available, affordable, and accountable coverage to the policyholder. While Governor DeSantis and Florida Republicans are giving taxpayer-funded handouts to the insurance industry and letting them increase our rates, progressive leaders believe we should be putting money back in the pockets of Floridians through direct subsidies from the state’s budget surplus, capping premium increases, and increasing oversight of insurance companies to deliver real reforms for Florida families. Our hard-earned paycheck should be going further for our families, not further into the deep pockets of the corporate elite.
