Subject: Town Hall: Home Insurance & Wildfires

Dear Neighbor,

Communities across California are continuing to face devastation caused by wildfires. 2020 was the worst year for wildfires in our state’s history, and this year is on track to be even worse!

Many communities in our district are considered Very-High Fire Hazard Zones, including areas in Valley Center, Fallbrook, Bonsall, Pala, Pauma Valley, Palomar Mountain, Escondido, and Rainbow.

I am very excited to share that this session we secured $2,660,000 in funding for our local fire protection districts, and $200 million in ongoing funding statewide to help prevent wildfires in the future.

Unfortunately, many homeowners in the 75th Assembly District are still at risk of losing their home insurance coverage due to the high risk of wildfires in our community.

This is why I am hosting a Virtual Townhall with the California Department of Insurance and Rincon Fire Department Chief Ed Hadfield to discuss this important issue and possible solutions!

Sincerely,
Marie Waldron
Assembly Minority Leader, 75^th District
