Atta-boy Ginny

Below is a small section of a letter I received from Congresswoman Ginny Brown-Waite this morning, directed to Governor Jeb Bush, requesting a Special Session of the Legislature be called to address the property insurance crisis in the state of Florida:


The Honorable Jeb Bush
Office of the Governor
The Capitol
Tallahassee, Florida 32399
Dear Governor Bush:


I commend you for creating the Property and Casualty Insurance Reform Committee. It is imperative
that the Committee begin its work immediately so that you may convene a Special Session to implement their solutions.

Every public official in the State of Florida has heard constituent outcry over skyrocketing insurance rates.
Homeowners are in jeopardy of losing their homes, and business owners are contemplating closing their
doors. Constituent cries are no longer simple outrage; they are desperation and fear. Without a solution, one hurricane this year will cripple our state and bring the economic prosperity we have experienced to a grinding halt. I know you share this fear, based on recent comments I have heard you make in the press.


Skyrocketing insurance rates are the most pressing issue to Floridians, and as you stated in your Executive
Order, more far-reaching measures are needed than those included in SB 1980. I urge you to appoint the
members of the Committee and convene a Special Session as soon as possible to solve this crisis.
As a Member of Congress, and a Florida resident, I thank you for your efforts and look forward to working
with you in providing a solution to this pressing crisis.
Sincerely,
Ginny Brown-Waite
Member of Congress


Atta-boy Ginny for listening to the citizens of the state of Florida who are trying to desperately deal with this insurance crisis!
