total votes cast by the Representative on bills we are tracking
Where we get our data: OpenStates.org, a community project that pulls legislative data from the Florida House and Senate websites.
Official data: We track and report the votes reported by the State of Florida. Displayed votes are the most recent data available from the House and Senate websites through Open States.
Changed votes: Legislators are entitled to change their votes after bills pass or fail. Those changes may or may not be published by the state.
No votes: A gray circle indicates that the legislator did not vote on the latest motion for that bill. They may have been absent or otherwise unable to vote.
"Voters Wanted" results are reported by the total, state-wide votes, until a district has at least 1,000 verified users in the Voatz app
Windstorm Coverage by Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (HB 1213)
Score:
0
%
This bill aims to stabilize the property insurance market for residents and businesses by outlining the operations of the Citizens Property Insurance Corporation. Recognizing that affordable property insurance is unavailable from private insurers, the bill emphasizes the need to protect public welfare by ensuring properties are insured at reasonable rates. The legislation grants Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, a government entity, the authority to provide this needed coverage. This entity is tasked with increasing access to affordable property insurance and is expected to maintain service quality at levels comparable to the voluntary market. Moreover, to bolster the entity's financial capability to pay out claims post-catastrophic events, the legislation intends for the corporation's income to be exempt from federal income taxation.
