Petition

California Action

Support Insurance Reform!

Date: Wed, April 18, 2012

Sign Now

Please take a moment sign a petition that would put insurance reform on the California ballot. Just four insurance companies control 71% of California's market, and they set premiums in secret, behind closed doors. California needs more transparency in insurance pricing, and should empower the state Insurance Commissioner to block excessive premium hikes by health insurers.
