"None of the insurance industry representatives said they would cut rates if
Hochul's plan became law"
Hochul’s auto plan rolls back victims’ rights and hands insurers a payday with zero guarantee of savings for you.

Deny! Defend! Delay! Just as ins cos denied claims in NY in the aftermath of Sandy, they are at it again! These are the ones @govkathyhochul is trying to save more money w auto reforms when they are already denying almost 50% of claims! @nydems https://t.co/fVHlc9d5lz
If reforms = rolling back victim rights to put more money into billion dollar corporation’s pockets then that’s a strange def of reform. I’d call it exploitation
Btw- where’s all that anti-fraud money @GovKathyHochul? Prior to Uber campaign funding, have you ever done anything about fraud these past 5 years? FOLLOW THE MONEY!! @NYSenDems@nysdacc
There is no bottom to the tort reform campaign Uber paid for and launched @GovKathyHochul. Governor uses dead people fake support to try to take away civil justice rights from honest crash victims @NYSenDems@nysdacc
No one thinks Staged Crashes aren’t important to root out/ but that is a criminal activity So maybe a State Police task force with Da’s & Dept of Financial Services actually is more strategic than a change in law that hurts real victims
Last week @govkathyhochul told the @newyorkpost that no victim @NYSTLA brought to Albany would be affected by the ins co’s proposal. Guess who has egg on her face? Eliminating comparative negligence leaves the Bornt fam w/o recourse https://t.co/svpKFBcEgs
Hochul’s office (incorrectly) told the Post her plan doesn’t affect the Bornt family—because “if he lived,” he wouldn’t be impacted.
But almost immediately, insurers tried to blame Robert Bornt for his own death, focused on reducing their exposure through comparative negligence, right out of their delay-deny playbook. @GovKathyHochul embraces this model.
