Today, Charlie Crist, candidate for governor of Florida, hosted a virtual press conference blasting Ron DeSantis for his failure to help Florida homeowners facing a potentially catastrophic property insurance crisis as Hurricane Ian takes aim at our state.
Crist was joined by former State Senator Steve Geller who authored the 2007 legislation signed by then-Gov. Crist that stabilized the market, held insurance companies accountable, and lowered rates by 10 percent.
