Bill to lower auto insurance rates proposed in Texas legislature
Senator Jarrard Lamet of Bell County introduces a bill to allow insurance companies to set lower and more uniform rates. The plan seeks a new rating system to replace the current practice, arguing that buyers could shop for cheaper coverage while the State Board of Insurance would oversee rates. It notes tax revenue losses to nonadmitted companies and urges directing business to Texas-based firms.
