PIP-Related Amendment Stripped from Property Insurance Bill After Rules Challenge
Apr 8, 2010
A Personal Injury Protection-related amendment to SB 2108 that was introduced by Senator Mike Fasano during the April 7, 2010 Senate Committee on Banking and Insurance (“Committee”) was determined to be inappropriate today and was stripped from the bill by Senate Rules Chairman Alex Villalobos.
During the Committee meeting, five amendments had been adopted to SB 2108, which would relate to property insurance after being amended. However, the bill was temporarily postponed because of the Rules challenge by Senate Democratic Leader Al Lawson.
Senator Fasano’s amendment would have afforded premium discounts to auto insurance policyholders for using a preferred provider network to receive Personal Injury Protection benefits. To view a copy of the amendment, click here.
SB 2108 has been referred back to the Committee for reconsideration.
