Check out the results of the latest poll from the Insurance Fairness Project. You can find all the details on their website alongside more resources and reports. Look under the "press" tab.
Here are some highlights:
84% of voters supported the right to file a lawsuit against an insurance company that denied, delayed, or underpaid a home insurance claim. Self-identified Democrats AND Republicans came in even higher at 86% (Q42a).
82% of voters supported the right to file a lawsuit against an insurance company if it canceled coverage or raised prices without warning (Q42b).
Inflation (28%) and insurance companies raising rates to increase profits (20%) bore most of the blame for rising home insurance costs. Frivolous lawsuits barely had any impact, a fact that was true across all political persuasions (Q29).
Utility rate increases (27%), inflation (26%), government regulators not doing enough (18%), and data centers (12%) bore most responsibility for rising utility costs. Frivolous lawsuits registered 2% of the blame (Q30). Similarly, frivolous lawsuits received 1% of the blame for gas prices (Q31).
77% of voters supported states filing lawsuits against oil and gas companies for contributing to the increased cost of home insurance, which again was broadly bipartisan (Q40).
