"description": "Hawaiʻi families shouldn’t have to choose between keeping the lights on and protecting their homes. Last month's devastating floods are the latest example of climate change's impacts on Hawai'i, which are harming our communities and driving up the cost of home insurance. 85% of voters, across party lines, are worried about rising insurance rates. And they’re frustrated. While costs keep climbing, our elected leaders are siding with Big Oil. Local families and residents shouldn’t be the only ones footing the bill.Large oil and gas corporations knew decades ago that their products would make extreme weather disasters more destructive, but lied to the public about the problem — shouldn’t they pay their fair share of the rising costs? That’s why legislators are advancing Senate Bill 1166, which would help keep home insurance affordable and available in Hawaiʻi. SB 1166 would empower the State and insurance companies to take large oil and gas corporations to court to hold them accountable for climate-related losses — and require that any proceeds be factored into lowering insurance rates for Hawaii residents, who are currently bearing these costs through high premiums. Tell your legislator to take action to hold corporate polluters accountable, reduce costs, and make life more affordable for all of Hawaiʻi by supporting SB 1166.",
