NZ covers some basic natural disaster damage up to about $175,000 USD (not fires), while private insurers handle supplemental policies. The median home value in CA is almost $1 million. We need someone ready to hold the insurance industry accountable & fix problems we have now.

COUNTY LEADERS MEET IN ALTADENA WITH STATE LEADERS!🏛️ Today, county leaders with the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) @CSAC_Counties gathered in the 2025 fire-devastated community of Altadena to discuss some of the most pressing challenges facing our counties: disaster preparedness and recovery, the impacts of H.R. 1 on our healthcare systems and vulnerable residents, and homelessness. Thank you to former U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary and candidate for California Governor Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra, State Treasurer and candidate for Lieutenant Governor Fiona Ma @fionama, and State Senator and candidate for State Insurance Commissioner Ben Allen @BenAllenCA for joining us for an open and substantive dialogue. California’s counties are on the frontlines of providing critical services to our communities every day. It is essential that we continue working closely with our state leaders to prepare for disasters, protect vulnerable residents, strengthen our healthcare safety net, and address homelessness throughout California. Strong state-county partnerships are essential to getting the job done for the people we serve. 🤝🏽🇺🇸 #CaliforniaCounties #CSAC #CountiesLead✊🏽

Our mutual primary opponent Patrick Wolff took a closer look at Jane Kim’s signature insurance proposal. His conclusion? The details don’t match the pitch. Watch Patrick break down what he found, then read his full piece in the San Francisco Standard. sfstandard.com/opinion/2026/…

Grateful for the support this campaign has received from LiUNA and so many other labor organizations across California. As Insurance Commissioner, I will continue fighting for working people, focusing on fixing the problems that are driving up rates and squeezing people.

Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the world, and I will always fight to keep productions and good-paying union jobs right here at home.  I want to thank Assemblymember Rick Zbur and Senator Ben Allen, the principal authors of AB 186, along with the Motion Picture Association, and the Entertainment Union Coalition, for their leadership and partnership in urgently advancing this legislation and securing this important relief before the close of the legislative session on Monday.  This legislation protects California’s Film and Television Tax Credit Program that we worked aggressively to expand to drive productions back to Los Angeles. I’m calling on the State Legislature to pass this measure on Monday and for Governor Newsom to sign it into law.  Our work does not stop here. We will continue to push for an uncapped state film and television tax credit and a federal film incentive to bring production home and protect the thousands of workers who make this industry possible. variety.com/2026/film/news/c…

So grateful to receive this award from the Sierra Club. My best memories with my dad were spent outdoors & that love of nature stuck with me. I’ve dedicated my time in the Senate to protecting our environment so my kids & generations to come can grow up enjoying the same places.

Hollywood belongs in California🎬 Proud to co-author AB 2319 to keep editors, VFX artists, sound engineers, musicians, and other post-production workers working right here at home. One more push to get it across the finish line!

Whenever I'm in Fresno, I make a point to stop at the Japanese American Veterans Memorial in Roeding Park. Their courage, sacrifice, and patriotism are a powerful reminder for all of us.
