Plain English Summary

AI-GENERATED
Requires the state to pursue a multistate natural disaster insurance pool.

The Commissioner of Insurance Regulation must start creating a national property insurance compact with other states by December 31, 2027, aimed at spreading natural disaster risk across state lines.

Once formed, the commissioner must join the compact once at least 14 other states have signed on, creating a shared national risk pool for storm and disaster losses.

The bill does not create the compact itself. It only directs the commissioner to negotiate one and to join once enough other states sign on.
