The bill allows Citizens to raise residential home insurance rates up to 25% a year in an attempt to get Citizens back to the insurance company of last resort not first choice. Many legislators claim that the rate increase is needed to make Citizens solvent. If a 1-100 year storm hit Florida, Citizens would have a $13.7 billion deficit.
