Podcast: Broxson ready to tackle soaring insurance rates

On WCOA, State Senator Doug Broxson discussed being the new chairman of the powerful Appropriations Committee and tackling insurance premiums.

Sen. Broxson said, “The impact of our insurance industry has got to be reevaluated, and we’re going to do that in a special session in a few weeks. And if we don’t, then increased premiums are really a form of a hidden tax that people simply cannot afford.”

He continued, “So we have a lot of pressure to get it right and to get the rates going the other way rather than doubling every year as they have for the last two years.”
