Kee Seeks Damages Rights From Atomic Plant Accidents
Rep James Kee introduced a House bill to allow full damages recoveries from atomic power plant disasters by repealing insurance liability limits. He argued current radiation exclusion clauses leave homeowners and businesses uncompensated for property damage or personal injury caused by radiation. The measure aims to restore legal rights for residents in areas near reactors and remove insurer exclusions that deny payout in such events.
